Which one is it?

Rahm Emanuel celebrates a record graduation rate
By RAHM EMANUEL Daily Splash columnist June 10, 2012 9:20PM
It was commencement weekend in Chicago and this year we have a lot to celebrate. For the first time on record, Chicago Public Schools have achieved higher than a 60 percent graduation rate.  A higher percentage of those graduates are enrolling in college next year than in any year since CPS started keeping records. I had the honor of speaking to the Class of 2012 at Morgan Park High School where 80 percent of seniors are graduating, as well as at Golder College Prep where 100 percent of seniors are graduating.

Once again you don't read to well. I said sends 100% of its graduates to college. Now, while 60% graduation rate is nothing to brag about, it is the best rate in Chicago Public School history, so progress is being made. Whatt would the graduation rate be at your wonderful private schools if they were required to take every student regardless of ability> What would it be if money to run the schools were constantly being taken away from them by people who were obsessed with seeing their destruction?
