OK,

So Asians make the most money, then Whites, then Hispanics and lastly Blacks.... is that alright then ?

People will rise to what is expected. If you expect less you get less.

Numbers be what numbers is.

...it wants 90 percent of Asian students, 88 percent of white students, 81 percent of Hispanics and 74 percent of black students to be reading at or above grade level.

If they were smart about this, they would do what police and fire departments across the nation have been forced to do - - give each of these democraphics a different test based on its stupidity level.

I’m not sure what the definition of “grade level” is, but this plan sounds like they expect 74% to 90% of students to be above average.

Don’t have far to go till they reach the Lake Woebegon level where ALL the children are above average.

A British newspaper recently had a semi-spoof headline stating the shocking news that almost 50% of British students were performing below average.

Think about it.

George Bush was right about the soft bigotry of low expectations by the left
