Where once Californians dreamed of building a society that matched the magnificence of the state’s landscape, in recent years we’ve settled instead for mountains of debt, disappearing jobs, D+ schools, greater public spending for prisons than higher education and an outdated, crumbling infrastructure

@kkfengdao,
D+ refers to a school grading system.
Students are graded on academic performance from A+ (the best and brightest) to F (The least academically inclined).
gradings include A B C D E F a plus + or minus - indicates a standard slightly higher then the letter indicates. a minus symbol indicates a performance slightly less than that required to achieve a particular letter grading.

D+ schools indicated that schools are not able to educate students well enough to achieve anything above D+ academic grades.
