Summerville and Trion GA represent the dark side of America.

Mr. Cook may be legit or not. However, there is an element of corruption in the community.

Trion High School has repeatedly distorted SAT scores. Administrators have proof... and conceal the records. But friends of our school have copies!

This evidence will be soon released to a major Atlanta news outlet.

It is only fair that all children compete on a level field.

Trion will be exposed for the corruption that they harbor!

WOAH... I just recently moved to Summerville, I thought it would be a place that held no corruption. This makes me sad.

I would like to know how they are able to keep out all the hispanic of their population from going to school there. I know that there is a large community of hispanics there because you see them playing soccer all the time. If they are going to employ them they need to educate the children then they will be able to see why other school systems struggle with test scores. Maybe someone out there can enlighten me.

Trion keeps the "unwanted" out of their school system by being established as a city school. Most people don't realize just how small the actual Trion city limits are, but check the census numbers and you'll see that there is barely a town.

Because they are a city school Trion is only "required" to admit the children who live in the city limits, and they only have to accept other students if they score high enough on their entrance exam. This serves two purposes, it drives up Trion's scores, and reduces the county schools scores.

Unfortunately that doesn't erase the fact that the Trion school system has always existed for the sole purpose of turning out minimum wage denim mill workers for Mt Vernon.

Daily Horoscope for November 15

Taurus

The Moon moves through your seventh house of marriage and partnerships, helping you make a fresh start in important relationships. This may be painful as stern Saturn and obstructive Pluto complicate matters; you may have difficulty accepting certain changes within yourself or someone you love. Some of you may also be in conflict with a parent; try to step back and see the great cycle of life.
