Is you illiterate two?

Can you spot the problem with this advertisement? I came across this ad while using gmail:

www.EDIn08.com – 70% of 8th Graders Can’t Read at Grade Level. And Won’t Catch Up.

Don’t get me wrong–the problem this advertisement addresses is real. Seriously, though, am I supposed to take this advocacy group seriously if they don’t know how to compose grammatically complete sentences?
