she's slightly exaggerating and i wouldn't call it a "great literacy crisis", but the kids in high school and middle school do have an uphill battle ahead of them if they want to be functioning members of society.
my old lady teaches middle school math in inner city Houston. One of the better schools as well. And half of her kids can't grasp simple concepts like multiplication tables, fractions, and graphing. After it being taught to them for years and her fellow teachers and her reteaching it this year.
They don't care. Their parents don't care. And the test scores show it.
