Kansas Closes All Public Schools, Sells Buildings to Prison Companies

TOPEKA, KANSAS (The Nil Admirari) - Today, Kansas Governor Sam Brownback signed a bill into law closing all Kansas public schools and selling the buildings to for-profit prison corporations. The law also permanently closed the Kansas State Department of Education, ordered the arrest of public school employees, and outlawed any academic standards.

"I am proud to announce the government's K-12 schools are officially closed in Kansas. Public education employees are urged to turn themselves into police, as warrants have been issued for their arrest," announced Governor Brownback.
