I had no idea it was this bad. Did you? How could they ever succeed in our country? They have been screwed by their culture and government.

The former superintendent of Atlanta Public Schools, Meria Carstarphen, last year said, “White students are nearly 4.5 grade levels ahead of their black peers within Atlanta Public Schools.” In San Francisco, 70% of white students are proficient in math; for black students, it is 12% — a gap of 58%. In Washington, D.C., 83% of white students scored proficient in reading, as did only 23% of black students — a gap of 60%. In Philadelphia, 47% of black students scored below basic in math and 42% scored below basic in reading. In Baltimore, 59% of black students scored below basic in math and 49% in reading. In Detroit, 73% of black students scored below basic in math and 56% in reading.
Below basic” is the score a student receives when he is unable to demonstrate even partial mastery of knowledge and grade level skills. How much can racism explain this? To do well in school, someone must make a kid do his homework, get a good night’s rest, have breakfast and mind the teacher. If these basic family functions are not performed, it makes little difference how much money is put into education the result will be disappointing.
In 2019, the racial breakdown of high school seniors who took the ACT college entrance exam and met its readiness benchmarks was 62% of Asians, 47% of whites, 23% of Hispanics and 11% of blacks. That helps explain a 2016 study by Georgetown University’s Center on Education and the Workforce “African Americans: College Majors and Earnings.” It found that black college students were highly concentrated in lower-paying and less academically demanding majors like administrative services and social work. They are much less likely than other students to major in science, technology, engineering and math, even though blacks in these fields earned as much as 50% more than blacks who earned a bachelor’s degree in art or psychology and social work.

It goes back to the Big Switch when Southern White Democrats, were terrorizing blacks, sorta like BLM/ANTIFA are today. When you have a party lie all the time, the only way to get people to believe those lies, is to completely uneducate them in large quantities. White Progressives, dont really like black people, just look how they treat the inner cities where 1000s of blacks are killed by blacks yearly.. Also look where those Prog leaders put their kids, not with the blacks, that is for sure....

The Big Switch is the Big Swindle, and prog blacks, have been duped....
 
It has been this bad for years. Overall, our HS students perform worse overall than many major modern countries. I don't think the powerful teachers unions want people to know this.
I won't even mention that each of these states has been run by Dems for decades and you may not have to look further than the lefties in charge to recognize that the "systemic racism" actually originates in the hearts of these supposed enlightened progressives

No they've been screwed by a largely conservative ideology over the last few decades that has sought to defund and undermine public education in this country while talking up things like charter schools and school vouchers. Just shorthand for trying to destroy public education and appeasing those largely white suburban parents who don't want their children going to school with those dark kids.

Your big failed Super Cities are composed only of two groups in 2020. Uber Wealthy honkies and poor blacks on welfare in the Ghetto.

Middle class people have moved out to the burbs.

Your stats are only about the city school systems, a tiny fraction of our school system.
In those cities, the liberal school boards are more interested in being woke and teaching the children how to perform various LGBTQ acts.

performing at the same level as whites.

You got anything other than tired memes? You on the right have had your heads up your asses for three decades when it comes to public education. The main goal is to dismantle it...at the expense of lower income and minority students. Group those high achieving white kids in those private and charter schools and let the rest of em figure it out.

Do you know where education funding comes from? Cause it looks like you don't. It begins at the federal level. So you want examples, let's take Trump's SOE yes woman, Betsy Devos, and the millions of dollars she cut from the Education Dept budget. This woman's sole goal was to dismantle public education as we know it in favor of for profit, private, religious, and charter schools.

So like it or not, funding starts at the top. So now, let's proceed to a city. Let's take Baltimore, a favorite target of you right wingers. Again, we use Devos as an example of the kind of thinking that permeates her and other right wing brains.

Again, Devos just took the assault on public education to an art form.
Sorry, violence in inner cities requires a larger discussion at a social and policy level than the likes of Trump supporters are capable of having.

Funding for education comes from the school tax bill that comes every January or February to all property owners.

In Philadelphia, 47% of black students scored below basic in math and 42% scored below basic in reading. In Baltimore, 59% of black students scored below basic in math and 49% in reading. In Detroit, 73% of black students scored below basic in math and 56% in reading.
Below basic” is the score a student receives when he is unable to demonstrate even partial mastery of knowledge and grade level skills. How much can racism explain this? To do well in school, someone must make a kid do his homework, get a good night’s rest, have breakfast and mind the teacher. If these basic family functions are not performed, it makes little difference how much money is put into education the result will be disappointing.
In 2019, the racial breakdown of high school seniors who took the ACT college entrance exam and met its readiness benchmarks was 62% of Asians, 47% of whites, 23% of Hispanics and 11% of blacks. That helps explain a 2016 study by Georgetown University’s Center on Education and the Workforce “African Americans: College Majors and Earnings.” It found that black college students were highly concentrated in lower-paying and less academically demanding majors like administrative services and social work. They are much less likely than other students to major in science, technology, engineering and math, even though blacks in these fields earned as much as 50% more than blacks who earned a bachelor’s degree in art or psychology and social work.

No they've been screwed by a largely conservative ideology over the last few decades that has sought to defund and undermine public education in this country while talking up things like charter schools and school vouchers. Just shorthand for trying to destroy public education and appeasing those largely white suburban parents who don't want their children going to school with those dark kids.

No they've been screwed by a largely conservative ideology over the last few decades that has sought to defund and undermine public education in this country

Give a couple of big city examples where conservatives have defunded public education.
Start with the examples given in the article.
Or some examples where liberals got their desired funding and black students started
performing at the same level as whites.

Just shorthand for trying to destroy public education and appeasing those largely white suburban parents who don't want their children going to school with those dark kids.

Looking at the violence in and poor performance of the Chicago Public Schools,
can you blame them?

Do you know where education funding comes from? Cause it looks like you don't. It begins at the federal level. So you want examples, let's take Trump's SOE yes woman, Betsy Devos, and the millions of dollars she cut from the Education Dept budget. This woman's sole goal was to dismantle public education as we know it in favor of for profit, private, religious, and charter schools.

So like it or not, funding starts at the top. So now, let's proceed to a city. Let's take Baltimore, a favorite target of you right wingers. Again, we use Devos as an example of the kind of thinking that permeates her and other right wing brains.

Again, Devos just took the assault on public education to an art form.
Sorry, violence in inner cities requires a larger discussion at a social and policy level than the likes of Trump supporters are capable of having.

Do you know where education funding comes from?

Mostly from local property taxes.
Lots of Chicago conservatives cutting my property taxes to starve
the shitty Chicago Public Schools? That would be news to me.

It begins at the federal level.

Liar.

Let's take Baltimore, a favorite target of you right wingers.

Looks like less than 1% of the general fund is federal.

Let me guess, public school math?
 
I had no idea it was this bad. Did you? How could they ever succeed in our country? They have been screwed by their culture and government.

Public education taxes more and more people outside jurisdictions because of the massive costs. Progs serve the poor slaves and the teacher unions using the taxpayer as the donors. Schmucks living on farmland hundreds of miles away from cities are paying taxes to the local school districts within them. And the fees are rising. This while getting terrible results. This is not new. Its been known for many many years. Educated morons.
