But the kid can’t write.
Can’t count to one hundred.

Every teacher conference I ever attended was a complete waste of my time and the of the teacher as well.

They are completely worthless!

[mware]

Just checked the school credentials. Under 500 attend, 25 teachers, 1 counselor. <5% proficient in math, <5% proficient in English. Lottery to get in.

Idiocracy is here. He’s eligible to be a pilot.

Working 3 jobs doesn’t excuse you from taking an interest in your kids school work.

“...school’s administrators and teachers ....”

I doubt there were many whites involved in this group. It’s Baltimore !

[Red Badger]

500/25 = 20................. perfect class size...............

He still aint black enough because he actually showed up at school sometimes.. . Mcdonalds is hiring executives based on anything but educational or work merit. This kid should be a VP.

Suggested reading for all:

1984
Animal Farm
Brave New World
Fahrenheit 451
Atlas Shrugged.

“He’s a good kid. He didn’t deserve that. Where’s the mentors? Where is the help for him? I hate that this is happening to my child,” said an emotional France. “I’m gonna check on him again next year to see how he’s doin’.”

Suggested reading for all: 1984 Animal Farm Brave New World Fahrenheit 451 Atlas Shrugged.

I’d suggest adding Vonnegut’s “Harrison Bergeron” to the list. If you’re not familiar, a story about forcibly handicapping anyone with intelligence, skill or talent so that everyone is “equal”.
