Are public schools failing our black children?

[Remodeling Maidiac]

I feel for this young man and this is further evidence that the unions don't do shit and we need school choice so involved parents can get their kids out of the failing schools.

If it's a public school in a Democrat controlled city, it is a certainty that the Black kids will be YEARS BEHIND where they should be if not completely illiterate.

Unionized public school teachers feel that black kids really don't have to learn much- they can be awarded degrees and jobs by means of Affirmative Action. And they won't even have to do that if the Reparations ship finally comes in, then they will be able to retire.

It's the cultural problem but leftist don't wanna talk about it.

To me, if you look at the whole picture thoroughly, you will see that public schools failing all children no matter what race they are.

God bless you always!!!

How do they do in AZ?

My school district is fantastic. 70% of the HS grads go on to college. They have programs for any sort of special needs, including the need to be challenged academically. When my son went to college, he found that the academic rigor was not as high as it was in HS.

Demographically, the district is quite "diverse." We have lots of Indians, Chinese, and other POC's, though not many descendants of enslaved Americans. Pity that.

"We" have a very strong teachers' union. Most senior teachers are in six figures (all compensation included), and can retire after thirty years - usually in their early 50's. Accordingly, when openings come up they are deluged with applications from fully-qualified teachers and recent grads, and can choose the best of the lot.

The district is quite large, so "our" sports teams are generally dominant, even in their own classifications. VIrtually all of the athletes also participate in "club" sports outside school, which accelerates their athletic development. Coaches are well compensated.

When I hear and read people making the case that America's public schools are crappy, I wonder why they choose to generalize based on the worst of the worst.

Pennsylvania, where I live, is currently floundering under an ominous court order that says, in effect. "Yinz need to spend a shitload more than you are now on public schools, because some of them are bad." Democrats and teachers' unions are absolutely thrilled with this decision and its implications. More money will be spent - mountains more money - and the various "achievement gaps" will remain. They have nothing to do with money and everything to do with culture - which the schools don't control

That's because it is not the problem.

No we need to take some of that money we pay for bombs and for police to drive tanks and put it into public schools.

So if I start a tread with a white supremacist rally does that mean I can claim that all whites are white supremacists?

No, it's down to parenting.

No, it's down to parenting.

No, it's not that either.

 

[Plagerist]

No, it's not that either.

Yes, it is.

i'm a big fan of school choice, simply because it defunds the school unions who simply will not listen to parents that do not like political agenda's infiltration

Compiled over a period of at least twenty years. It paints a very dismal but realistic picture of socialist system of public education that has been failing us for decades and producing incompetent teachers, professors, journalists and citizens. The more money spent on education, the worse educational results have been.

And what is THE college major with the lowest average SAT score?
Anyone, anyone?
Anyone?

Education. Not art. Not P.E. Education, followed by sociology.

After four years of work, graduates take the GRE or Graduate Record Exam.

What college major gets the lowest average score on the GRE?
Anyone, anyone? Anyone?

Sociology majors, followed by..... education majors. They don't learn. They emote, like their 'teechers' teach them.

White kids go to public schools. So why is this only about black kids?

**** any President who does not vaporize the Federal Department of Education

How can Leftists such as Lakhota, Crepitus, Moonglow and many others be so hateful as to support and promote the ongoing madness of incompetence, inflation, illegal immigration run amok, homosexual/transgender/woke insanity, defunding police, releasing criminals from jails, riots and protests for woke anti-Americanism....


HOW?

Or they could just get a "black job".
