You how much FURTHER we fall behind?Yeah.... and let's see just how far we fall behind all the other western nations in educational achievement. Teachers in a classroom add value.
Do you know why I support a public education system?
Because I don't want to live with a bunch of idiots.
I find it is the politicians (school boards, etc.) and top administrators who are into social engineering. The teachers in the classroom are usually focused on teaching without a political agenda. Once in while you come across a teacher with a political agenda (left or right), they usually are very poor teachers. The educational results in the U.S. are actually among the best in the western world when you compare similar races and wealth demographics - our public schools generally are not "failing".
In Wake County, we from the 1970s to the mid-2000s have endured a school board and top administrators who pushed a social engineering agenda of racial diversity across the public schools. They would bus students for miles (which was proven to lower results for students of all races). Finally the parents revolted and voted the idiots out. This led to neighborhood-based school assignment (as is done in 95% of the U.S.) Unfortunately the right-wing crowd they voted in had their own significant problems as well. Now we are back to a Democratic board but they have learned their lesson and no longer push the school assignment diversity nonsense (which is actually now illegal in our state after a court decision) -- because they know the parents would revolt again & vote them out if they pushed this busing-for-diversity nonsense.
Black parents need to get their acts together. What a joke. It's called read to your fucking kids and turn off the rap music.I haven't read the book, but I've seen two interviews with the author
the most staggering fact is if you test all white suburban schools in the USA we rank first in the world. And by a very large margin, leaving Finland way behind.
If you test just inner city black schools we rank almost last in the world, even lower than most third world countries
I can confirm that he's absolutely right about this. Raleigh at one point had public schools that were the equal of most top private schools. Integration changed all that, and their solution was to try to dilute the blacks in the city by combining it with the county system. Result was 30+ years of lives ruined. The people that suffered were the ones who always suffer at the hands of liberals, middle and lower class whites. The wealthy elites just sent their kids to private or religious schools.
The problem however is you will always face this kind of risk with a government system. Whether the disastrous decisions are being made by politicians backed by union members or bureaucrats, you're stuck. And you get to pay for their insanity even if your kids go elsewhere.
It's the fucking teachers unions and public school system.You how much FURTHER we fall behind?
I disagree. Have you ever taken a class from the Khan academy? It seems to me that a student that has the ability to pause, rewind and repeat any lesson they don't "get" is far better off than a student sitting in class.
Continuing to throw money at a failing educational system won't work. The main problem for educational attainment is the "group setting".
Osmotic learning. As if the good habits of white kids will somehow 'rub off' on black kids. Black parents are mostly retards who don't read to their kids, talk ebonics at home, and blast rap music. Good combo.
You're a stupid fuckbag who lives in a world completely divorced from reality. American blacks, by almost every metric, have shittier outcomes in life because their culture (read: stupid fucking parents) don't value education, hard work, self-improvement, and law abiding behavior.You are extremely ignorant and obviously made bad choices on your education. More then likely your parents were racists who passed on their twisted beliefs to you. Trying to suggest entire groups of people have certain traits because of their skin colour is maybe how some dumb guys like you think, but seriously now, your opinion is worthless and immoral.

That doesn't mean all of them. That means generally. I know that's a hard term for you liberal douchebags to comprehend because you like to think exceptions make the rule, when they don't. Exceptions like Ben Carson, a fucking genius, are the exception. Not the norm. The norm is some ghetto ass black guy in Chicago gangbanging and going to prison for 50 years. Now are blacks predated on by law enforcement for petty possession drug crime to bump up arrest records? Yes, they are. But we don't see that many acing school, going to college, and getting great jobs either. Why is that?
See, unlike you, I'm not a racist. I think Blacks have every ability whites and asians do. They just choose not use it because their culture (and parenting skills) are completely backward. You hear me? B-A-C-K-W-A-R-D. Now why don't you cry about it you Liberal idiot.
Get in my face? Who's going to get in my face? You and your merry little band of #blacklivesmatter racists who said paris can go fuck itself?You are clearly ignorant and clearly a racist. You think highly of yourself when you have no reason to do so, and hide behind the internet talking tough when we can't get in your face and set you straight. I have no reason to cry over you and your opinions, your a fucked up tool who should probably be locked up.
Keep hiding behind the internet spewing your venom. You are a joke.
