Does anyone remember the high school in the NE area...New Jersey I think...that made the news about a year or so ago because something like 95% of the kids there either dropped out or couldnt read? It was a focus on the Black education “crisis” or similar. Thanks for any help.
Disgusting
Targeic for the students
LMAO! That’s funny, yet is should not be. The stupid and hence, jobless, will eventually be kicked out of the home to fend for themselves. With WHAT? Stupid will reign the day. And the only way to survive is to take from others. The rats are spawning the perfect stupid class, voting rat in perpetuity!
Gee...what do those schools share in common?

When I homeschooled my children, my standard was “mastery and move forward”. That was based on my personal experience of being bored out of my skull in school because of constant review and slowly moving forward. My kids were always reading three or four grade levels beyond their age. By age 12 they could read anything. I didn’t really think of grade level per se. It was judged by other’s grade level designations of reading materials. As for math, the same approach was taken. By age 17-18, they made it through Calc III and a calculus-based prob and stat course.
There was nothing aggressive about that. It was a simple as moving from topic to topic after mastering a topic. The key to that, at least in math, is making exercises that required previously learned material. Use it or lose it. Some topics took longer than others, but they didn’t move forward until mastery because ultimately it would drag them down later.
Anyways, my experience with government school teachers is they lack rigor and personal standards. There isn’t much more pansy-assed than an Ed degree. When I was in college I saw people change majors and drop courses. For instance a physics major becoming a mathematics major, and when that didn’t work out, a down grade to Math Ed, followed by El Ed.
Brooklyn, Illinois (Lovejoy) is a village just outside East St. Louis.
Manley Career Academy is in a large, old high school building (like you’d expect for an older city neighborhood) in one of Chicago’s worst neighborhoods. It has fewer than a hundred students...an obvious waste of city money (they could rent a large storefront for less), but they won’t close it because to do so would be “harmful” to the community.
Maff be hard, yo!
With all the time schools are spending teaching CRT, an alphabet of sexual perversion and grooming kids to change their gender, there is no time to teach math reading or much of anything else.
Illinois is very close to accomplishing equality for all. Kudos
Just say Chicago.
Hey, it takes time to turn a first-world nation into a third-world one.

Why study math? I have a cell phone.

This might explain at least some of it.
The tests will be banned, just as SAT and ACT tests are being banned all over the country b/c they’re racist.
