Diette Courrégé of the Charleston (SC) Post and Courier reports:
Seventeen Charleston County principals who oversee the school district's lowest-achieving schools will receive more than $320,000 in bonuses this year for working at their respective schools.
Included in the list published by the Post and Courier, and based on information from the Charleston School District, are Brentwood Middle School and Morningside Middle School. These two schools are listed as number 9 and number 8 respectively in the national "worst public schools" list.
If the Congress wants to teach those who profit from failure at the taxpayers' expense, how about some legislation taxing bonuses paid to failed educational bureaucrats?

Not that I'm supporting the idea of paying a bonus to those who failed to do what their job was, is taxing the bonuses really the way, whether it's banks or schools respectively? If it's so easy to create a bill for new taxes, who else is going to be taxed next time?
