I just heard on the radio that only 1 in 4 high school students in Oklahoma can name the very first president of the USA. Seriously?! You are telling me that 3 out of 4 high school students(in Oklahoma) can't tell you that GEORGE WASHINGTON WAS THE FIRST PRESIDENT? HOW SAD IS THAT?
I learned that in like the 2nd or 3rd grade. I mean c'mon how hard is it to look at a dollar bill? It has George Washington right there on it. Ok it doesn't scream "FIRST PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!!!" but it should click somewhere.
I think that Oklahoma needs to change their curriculum just a tad.
