U.S. Students Flunk U.S. Citizenship Test

This is so sad. I find it mind boggling that these students had no idea that our first president was George Washington. I remember learning about Washington and Lincoln in second grade! What exactly is being taught in "Social Studies" classes across this country if high school student don't even know this basic information? The questions that were asked in this study are from the test that immigrants must take in order to obtain citizenship and children who have lived their entire lives here can't answer the questions. And, public schools want more money??? Just one more reason to homeschool your children.
