“Epic fail all the way around.”

Well...not exactly.

Step back and take another look at the US today:

Clearly their system is working exactly as designed, isn’t
it?

[super7man]

The school failed at their job.
And I take no responsibility.
They failed.
And I take not responsibility.
They failed, that's the problem here.
And I take no responsibility.
They failed.
And I take no responsibility.
They failed.
And I take no responsibility.
He didn't deserve that.
True. He did not deserve you as his mother. He deserved better.

This is egregious education fraud. Every administrator who permitted this to occur without strenuous objection should be terminated for cause.

[super7man]

ranks near the top half of his class

62 is "near". ;o)

[hoagy62]

Okay....since he IS a failure, what should happen now?

Seeing stories like this really piss me off, but now we have to deal with the consequences. And NO ONE (and certainly not I) has an answer for that.

So...what is to be done now?

“Where are the mentors?” Uh, lady, they’re called “fathers.”

Could it be that the school’s administrators and teachers were afraid to say or do anything in fear of being called “racist”?

If so they have failed because now they will be called racist for not saying or doing anything.

Oh, I don’t suppose being absent for 272 days had anything to his failure

[HartleyMBaldwin]

Yes, it’s near. It’s not in the top half. I wasn’t commenting on the headline of the article, but to another poster’s statement that the student’s ranking of 62 put him in the top half of the class.

[I want the USA back]

Classic example of blaming failures on someone else. Kid missed school 90 days each year.

All the kid has to do is write “black lives matter” 100 times, and he’ll be accepted into college with free tuition, room and board, paid for by the successful, hard working students.

“He's stressed and I am too. I told him I'm probably going to start crying. I don't know what to do for him,” France told Project Baltimore. “Why would he do three more years in school? He didn't fail, the school failed him. The school failed at their job. They failed. They failed, that's the problem here. They failed. They failed. He didn't deserve that.”

 

Ahh Yes. But she and her husband, the child's father; they DIDN'T fail him. I'm sure.

[CIB-173RDABN]

We here at FR know the answer but they just can’t see it.

They know the answer as well. I have to think this is by design.

[Responsibility2nd]

So if Baltimore gave the boy a high school diploma, would she feel better?

Would that satisfy her? Allow her to think her kid is smart after all?

Look at it this way honey. Your kid is probably in the top ten percent of his class.

Be glad for that.

[Red Badger]

He’s the smartest guy in the room................

[shotgun]

Is his name Omar?

[Responsibility2nd]

In four years this “mother” did look at his gpa OR have a council with indoctrinators.

___________________________________________

First of all, you would have to explain to “mother” what a gpa is. Then define an indoctrinator.

[Red Badger]

Of course it is.

Teachers unions aren’t about educating kids, they’re about making money, your kids be damned...............

[shotgun]

[Responsibility2nd]

This is a lost generation. And what is the solution? You can bet on it 100% that the Department of Education will need ...MORE MONEY!

If only a generation.

This boy and his parents, grand parents and great grand parents were lost.

Ever since LBJ and his Great Society doomed n-——s to voting democratic for the next 200 years.
