At more than 200 Maryland public schools, 5 percent or fewer students scored proficient in Math

How much do parents really know about Maryland public schools? Project Baltimore has learned the latest round of state test scores does not tell the whole story about student outcomes.

Right now, if you go to the Maryland State Department of Education’s website, you can find the 2023 state test scores for every school in Maryland. The data was posted last week.

The website is where parents and taxpayers can go to see how public schools are performing. But if you take a closer look at the test scores, there’s a lot you can’t see. For instance, if you’re looking for information on the lowest-performing schools in Maryland, you won’t find it.

“It's hiding the truth from parents,” said Del. Kathy Szeliga, a Republican representing Baltimore County, who spoke to Project Baltimore in April about an investigation that sparked outrage.

Last month, Project Baltimore reported on 13 high schools in Baltimore City where zero students, among those who took the state test, scored proficient in math. That story shed light on a major problem.

This is why it should be MANDATORY for Every Public Employee in America to send their children to the Public School system, or face FELONY charges and have the children put into Foster Care so they can get a Proper Education.

I think of Randi Weingarten did what she did a few years ago and shut down the schools, these schools, she’d be doing the right thing.

Einstein, Cantor, von Neumann — it's in the genes.

Jamal, Qu'atavius, Keshawn — not so much.

They know the right pronouns to use and their school libraries are probably filled with gay porn.

In Florida we started moving sexual weirdo porn out of schools - and when that’s done the sexual weirdo community screams to their boys in the press how ‘books are being banned’ So if that’s not happening in Baltimore it means the libraries are filled with porn.

Oh, it's still in the genes, according to "The Bell Curve".

Na, not really. Baltimore simply has diversity among its population. Diversity is a good thing and this is really a success story. It’s exactly what the people wanted and voted for. /s

Yeah well, if you took Baltimore out of the mix the scores would be a lot higher.

Like maybe 7 percent.

I guess we are paying the government workers in the Dept. of Education to allow school boards and teachers unions to destroy the American education system.

It’s as planned.

Keep people dumb and ignorant, and they’ll forever be dependent on big government.

Intelligent and knowledgeable people tend to make their own decisions and rebel against big government.

Zero students across 13 high schools were proficient.

I know there’s peer pressure because trying to learn and do well is acting white . So there is peer pressure to not do well. But to think that there is no student who is proficient, none at all???? Do they learn anything at all in school???
