My time constraints are pretty tight, and so I&#8217;m afraid that my coursework may suffer as a result. 60 hours/week driving and working. 56 hours/week sleeping (I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For many years in a row now the Mount Vernon Primary Center has failed to reach the NCLB standards. This leads to an option for us to send our kids to other schools in the area, however the superintendents of the districts have allegedly colluded to not accept students from any of the other&#8217;s districts.

Paying an outrageous price for books has just been a fact of life with these corporations doing what they can to educate, but at a profit.
