Six Baltimore Schools Can’t Produce a Single Student Proficient in English or Math

Despite spending more per pupil than all but two large school districts in America, at least half a dozen government schools in Baltimore were unable to produce one single student who was proficient in either English or math last year.

The shocking results, uncovered by Project Baltimore, show a monumental tragedy unfolding in the city that represents a microcosm of the damage being inflicted on children across America. The proficiency tests put students in five categories, with four and five considered proficient, and one through three considered not proficient.

I guess S.T.E.M. weren’t taught in any of them,

But, they did find the money to give a Black Lives Matters founder a $200,000 a year no-work job. And after all, isn’t that far more important than teaching kids language, reading, or math????

Bet they don’t read or write in cursive, either!

[matt04]

My thought also. Get a bunch of affirmative actin hires who were exempted from certain requirements to teach...

[pfflier]

Don't, for a second, think this is unique to Baltimore schools. They are the ones that got busted.

There are plenty of online sites where you can check your local schools against state and national standards.

Here is a good example of a comprehensive analysis website:

Math is hard when you can’t talk good.

NWO...gotta keep the masses dumb.

Public schools have all these strict rules and no tolerance polices etc, such as attending their graduations. Yet public schools consistently produce young high school kids with 4th grade educations.

I find this very odd.

The teens are dumb.

Throw more and more money at it and it eventually will work. /sarc

No, married ones are taken to the courses on how to get a divorce as soon as possible.

THE failed experiment of the communist democrats!

[dragnet2]

That’s the ticket...Send that to the boated teachers unions!

[MagUSNRET]

How much of that money went to the local teachers union???????
Good grief!

Easier to control if they're stupid. Now if they could just get them stoned and queer.

And this is most likely common core BS. Fire the teachers, get rid of the unions, take every welfare handout away from their parents to include section 8, all cell phones, etc.

Public schools need to bb e crushed and the system needs to be rebuilt.

But they can sell you a dime bag and reload a Glock.

I bet they can do enough math to tell you the total rounds you can load in 2 double stack glock mags though.
