Lebron James’ I Promise School in Akron, Ohio is facing major backlash from Akron Public School Board members after it was reported that the school hasn’t had one student from its 8th grade class pass a state math test in over three years.
Akron Public School board member Valerie McKitrick was shocked by the new revelation and stated “Not one? In three years?” after she was presented with data that showed not one single student in the school’s fall 8th-grade class couldnpass a Ohio stated math proficiency test.
Keith Liechty-Clifford who serves as Akron’s district director of school improvement went on record saying the new finding “Is discouraging.”
Despite receiving massive funding from the James Foundation along with local, state, and federal funding, the I Promise school’s “Black students and those with disabilities, are now testing in the bottom 5% in the state.”
The low test scores will now cause the Ohio Department of Education to intervene at the school in a last effort attempt to reverse the downtrend in test scores.

How da gonna sell drugs if they don’t know how to count money?
The kids are just emulating their name sake.
“A thorough bred plays ball, not numbers”
The answer is obvious. The Ohio state math exam is racist.
The tests will be deemed racist and eliminated.
Just as the SAT and ACT were deemed racist and eliminated.
Because they’ve been told that getting the right answer is being white.
Math is racist.
“Hint: money has very, very little to do with learning.”
You are so right! Read on — every one of these schools are in RAT controlled areas:
“Of the 100 largest public school systems (based on enrollment), the six that spent the most per pupil in FY 2019 were the New York City School District in New York ($28,004), Boston City Schools in Massachusetts ($25,653), Washington Schools in the District of Columbia ($22,406), San Francisco Unified in California ($17,228), Atlanta School District in Georgia ($17,112), and Seattle Public Schools in Washington ($16,543).”
2+2=4 unless it is common core math then it can be anything you want it to be.
This is hard to believe. I’d like to see the test itself.
I live in Ohio... you are right about that
I bet recess is spent on the B-ball court learning to “flop” like Lebron.
