Yes and that's a shame.
Still, why is Alabama's education system way more highly rated than Georgia's? and consistently I might add. Georgia continuously competes with Louisiana and Mississippi for last place in the country.
Very glad we moved from Georgia to Colorado. Been here for about 3 years now and no day goes by where I miss it.
