This statement proves that if one keeps their expectations low enough, even the Louisiana Legislature can achieve success:

“[The 'career option' diploma is] probably the most significant piece of legislation that came out this year …” said Rep. Frank Hoffmann, R-Monroe. Monroe News-Star, July 29, 2009.

In case you are unaware the “career option” diploma is for those students in the LA Public Schools who are unable to handle the tough curriculum required to get a traditional High School diploma.   Already almost a third of the school systems in Louisiana have already requested permission not to offer this “less-than-a-high-school-diploma” diploma.   Obviously, those systems suffer from high expectations for their students.

Rep. Hoffmann holds a Doctorate of Education degree.  Nuff said.
