Is it not rather ironic that the Okemos Millage Committee, backed by the Okemos School board and the Okemos Public School Administration, would attempt to DISCREDIT a study published by their very own Federal peer Bureacracy, the United States Department of Education???. Perhaps the Okemos Education Bureacrats in their arrogance believe that they know MORE than the US Department of Education?? It would certainly appear so, in their attempting to discredit the US Study within only weeks of it being released. This recently released study, by the way, happens to be the largest, scientific study of its kind, ever done!
