WHAT'S IT MEAN?

In yet another statistic indicating the quality of a city, Costa Mesa is in the basement with Santa Ana.

No doubt, we'll now hear some illegal alien friendly Return to Reason supporter tell us that Costa Mesa's low scores don't matter because kids in Costa Mesa are receiving an education in tolerance and diversity.

Go tell that to Harvard when your kid wants to get in.

Newport's scores are lower than Irvine's because there are many students from Costa Mesa (read children of illegal aliens) in Newport's schools. The geographically closer the Newport school is to Costa Mesa, the lower the score.

The Orange County average score is 1,590 and Statewide it's 1,497. Costa Mesa is below both of these! Good Grief!

Folks, don't believe those who have their heads stuck in the sand. All is not well in Costa Mesa, and these figures are just another indication of how unwell things are.

Costa Mesa needs some serious improvement, not more sweet nothings.
