Here’s a little thought experiment. What would happen if you were to swap the student body of one of those Asbury Park schools with that of a typical Japanese school? Would the Japanese kids’ grade-level reading proficiency sink to 11%? Would the Asbury Park kids begin turning up at math-a-lons? Yeah. Those poor Japanese teachers would begin committing hara kiri after a week or two.
Failures happen at home, in the school and in the community
Failure parent(s) can still have good and bright kids if they have great school and a very supportive community
Asbury Park is an example of a total failure and no amount of money will make Asbury Park Schools “great again”
Does anyone find is “ironic” that the left named one of the biggest Failure Factory of a school after Barack Obama?
