failing schools are a direct reflection of failing cultural, family, neighborhood, and political values ... throwing more money at failing schools fixes nothing ...
“Kansas City spent as much as $11,700 per pupil—more
money per pupil, on a cost of living adjusted basis, than any other of the 280 largest districts in the country.
The money bought higher teachers’ salaries, 15 new schools, and such amenities as an Olympic-sized swimming pool with an underwater viewing room, television and animation studios, a roboticslab, a 25-acre wildlife sanctuary, a zoo, a model United Nations with simultaneous translation capability, and field trips to Mexico and Senegal.
The student-teacher ratio was12 or 13 to 1, the lowest of any major school district in the
country.
The results were dismal. Test scores did not rise; the
black-white gap did not diminish; and there was less, not
greater, integration.”
Wasn’t this supposed to be fixed with the Civil Rights Act? School segregation and all that?
The public skool system CANNOT be fixed at this point. It is infected with socialists teachers and a union that doesn’t care about anything except lining their pockets.
“The 10-point plan Sanders will detail in a speech in South Carolina is designed to end racial disparities in the public education system”
Gene therapy?
Bernie’s days are numbered (in more ways than one).
Let’s face it....
Bernie was popular in 2016, because he was the anti-Hillary for the democrats in the primaries. Hillary was less popular, but then, anybody else that ran and had name recognition, could have beaten Hillary for the democratic party’s nomination.
But, once Hillary ‘stole’ the primaries from Bernie, the democrats had to united to try to defeat Trump. In any case, Sanders would have fared far worse against Trump in 2016. Sanders was and is way overrated, and so is his brand of socialism.
Totally uncalled for. There are many very smart black people.
It’s a fact,the average IQ of American blacks is 85.And sure there will be a lot of more intelligent folks in there.BTW there will also be a lot of folks that are one standard deviation below or worse.
Show me the facts you have supporting that statement then, since you say it is a fact.
Do your own research.It’s all available to you.I’m not here to support you,do the work and quit with the virtue signalling.
