It's payback for the people of West Virginia who abandoned their southern brothers and chose statehood with the Union in 1863 during the "Civil" War.
Similar instances of child abuse are not unique to West Virginia, but are rampant around our country. Are your children safe? How do you know?

2012 WEST VIRGINIA SCHOOL NEWS
THE FOLLOWING HEADLINES ARE SIMILAR TO HEADLINES FROM THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS. THE SAME (OR WORSE) WILL HAPPEN NEXT YEAR! THESE INCIDENTS REPRESENT ONLY A TINY FRACTION OF WHAT REALLY GOES ON IN THE SCHOOLS OF THE SMALL "BIBLE BELT" STATE OF WEST VIRGINIA! MANY OTHER SERIOUS INCIDENTS ARE NOT MADE PUBLIC..
SADLY, WHAT HAPPENED TO THESE CHILDREN CANNOT BE CHANGED. DO YOU WANT TO TAKE THE CHANCE THAT YOUR CHILD WILL MAKE IT UNHARMED? EVEN IF A SERIOUS EVENT DOES NOT SHATTER YOUR CHILD, THERE IS NO WAY TO AVOID EXPOSING YOUR CHILD TO THINGS THAT WILL HARM HIM/HER EMOTIONALLY, MENTALLY, AND/OR SPIRITUALLY.
THERE IS AN URGENT NEED TO GET OUR CHILDREN TO THE SAFETY OF HOMESCHOOLS OR CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS. THE DANGER OF THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS HAS CONVINCED A LOT OF NON-CHRISTIANS TO ABANDON THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS. CHRISTIANS HAVE THE BIBLICAL MANDATE TO EDUCATE THEIR CHILDREN ACCORDING TO DEUTERONOMY 6:7 AND COLOSSIANS 2:3.
WE MUST RESCUE OUR CHILDREN!
"Christian parents are _commanded_ to place their children under godly and Christian teaching, not neo-pagan or humanistic instruction. Whether we acknowledge it or not, only two choices remain-- obedience or disobedience to God’s commands. (See Col. 2:8; 2 Cor. 10:3-5; Deut. 6:1-9; Mal. 4:6; 2 Cor. 6:14-19 along with Luke 6:40. Matt. 22:37-38 and Eph. 6:4)" E. Ray Moore.
In the governor’s own words: From Governor Earl Ray Tomblin’s 2012 State of the State address: “Let me be clear that nothing is more important to creating good jobs than providing a world class education for both our children and adults. The world economy demands lifetime learning. We must start by refocusing our education system on the best interest of the student. If we want our children to have a future of their own choosing, we must meet their educational needs from the first day of school until graduation and beyond. We must elevate our aspirations, and challenge one another to participate in the world as productive, income-earning members of society.” Karl’s comment: This is pontificating political prattle that perpetuates the propaganda that public schools can be preserved. The purpose is to keep the pennies coming in from taken in tax-payers. See the previous State of the State speeches.
WE MUST RESCUE OUR CHILDREN!!

Please look at the school news below as well as for other years (along with my articles) for documentation about why tax-payers should “just say NO!” to pouring more money down the government school rat-hole.” You can easily follow common threads of drugs, sex (including teachers with students and promotion of sexual perversion), lack of disciple, violence, poor academic standards, crime, anti-Christianity, and wanting more and more money. It goes all the way back to 1975 (the year after the Textbook Controversy). See The Wayback Machine.Anonymous

It’s now time for public education in West Virginia to be accountable (July 29, 2012)
http://timeswv.com/editorials/x328557052/It-s-now-time-for-public-education-in-West-Virginia-to-be-accountable
From the article: In West Virginia, public education consumes more than 50 percent of the state’s annual operating budget despite a continuing slide in the number of students enrolled in public schools. For decades, education lobbyists have hammered legislators for not providing ever-increasing amounts of funding to support the state Department of Education’s perceived funding needs. Their rallying cry to improving the state’s educational outcomes has always been, “More money! More money!” Consider these facts: West Virginia’s spending on public education — on a per capita basis — is among the highest in the nation even though state per capita income ranks next to last...If throwing more money at public education is the answer, West Virginia test scores and levels of preparedness for college should rank near the top. Unfortunately that isn’t the case. Karl’s comment:
Unfortunately the editorialist wants to “place more control back in the hands of local school administrators, teachers and staff.” That was what we teachers got during the 1990 statewide teacher strike strike. It is illogical to let (not my analogy of course, but nevertheless quite apropos) the inmates control the asylum. The answer, as I have proclaimed since I “saw the light” is educational freedom. Christian parents, being obedient to the Word, should lead the way out of government education.

From the articles: The 2012 KIDS COUNT data book released Wednesday ranks West Virginia 47th in the nation in education. According to the report, 79% of the state's eighth-graders aren't proficient in math. Seventy-three percent of fourth-graders aren't proficient in reading.>>> Startling numbers released today rank West Virginia one of the worst for education in the country. "It really saddens me because I’m afraid. Are my kids going to get a good education or not?" Former teacher and mother of 5 Rebecca Schlies isn't surprised by the kids count report released Wednesday....ranking West Virginia 47 out or 50 when it comes to education. "Even before this came out, I’ve decided to homeschool 2 of my 5 children because I’m dissatisfied with what I’m seeing."... West Virginia Kid's Count executive director Margie Hale says must improve."They're not going to make it. If you can't read then you can't learn. So it's very tragic." Karl’s comment: No one who is attuned to what is happening in government schools found the report “startling.” The former teacher has got it! The WV KIDS COUNT director wants the state to “to invest more in early childhood education.” KIDS COUNT is a project of the Casey Foundation which supports charter and small public schools. I address that in mistaken idea “Taxpayers Get Tested” (may need to scroll down). Also see the 2012 REPORT OF WEST VIRGINIA PUBLIC SCHOOL TEST PERFORMANCE.
