"To ensure that the poor stay poor, we must poorly educate them..." - Liberal Left

Maybe this would not be such a huge issue if there were better standards for kids getting promoted from one grade to the next between K and 12.

Judicial tyranny on the liberal slave plantation. Can't be educating these uppity black or hispanic children. Liberals assume minority children are inferior, and by God we will keep them that way!

Nothing whatsoever has fundamentally changed in the slave owning democrat party since 1820.

In last week's ruling, Freedman sided with attorneys for a group of students who claimed the exam discriminates against poor and English-learner students because they do not have the same quality of education as students in more affluent districts.

So does this mean the bar exam is discriminatory if every law school in California does not offer the same quality education as Stanford?

The only "test" of fairness should be whether every school offers the minimum quality education needed to acquire the skills needed to pass the test. If substantial numbers of students from each school manage to pass, it's pretty hard to argue that there is a problem.

There is a lot of grumbling about public education on FR. But there are few, if any schools in this country that are so bad as to not provide the instruction necessary to pass the kind of test we're talking about here. Especially given the number of times students are allowed to take it.
