California students continue to score near the bottom among states in math and reading, according to results of a national test released Thursday.
The Golden State's fourth-graders ranked 47th in the nation in both math and reading. Eighth-graders ranked 45th in math and 42nd in reading. And the scores show that the gap separating white students from their black and Latino peers in English and math is bigger in California than it is nationwide.

Yet they do know alot about sexual positions and gay and transgender. How do you expect them to survive in the real world? /s
And their teachers make $100,000 a year?
liberals refuse to see the obvious for what it is.
and look how much money is confiscated from CA taxpayers for such awful, awful results.
if the monopolistic unionized public schools were private companies, they’d go bankrupt. or at least fire their management, crap teachers, and get better just from these two moves.
Hey...where are the Asian test scores?...hmmmmm....Guess those don’t fit the story that libs want to tell.
The Los Angeles Unified School District deals with students that speak over 165 different languages.
We have parts of the greater Los Angeles area where if you make a phone call you’ll find Koreans, Armenians, Chinese (Manderin / Cantonese), Spanish..., you name it, and large portions of them speak no English.
There was a report floating around on the forum a few years back that stated less than 50% of the adult males living in the City of Los Angeles can read or write English well enough to function in the business environment.
Obviously the only solution is to further raise taxes and spend another 60 billion dollars on the teachers union.
Don’t know what you said, but I think it’s what I was going to say.
That’s easy for you to say...
Rotsa ruck!
I guess the author, Sharon Noguchi, is unaware that there are Asian students in CA schools.
The bottom of the bottom!
They must be so proud.

Si, pero ellos sabien “Heather Tiene Dos Madres.”
Ahhhh the effectiveness of the unionized teacher....very impressive
These K-12 kids are a snapshot of CA’s future. Not seeing too many net taxpayers here.
Ooops, time to “invest” more money in Kalifornia education and CHANGE the tests. That’ll do it......again.

Back when California was the Golden State, their schools lead the nation in many categories.
A very good friend of mine, one I have know for over 50 years is a Teacher here in California. He has always been very conservative, but in the past few years has started to sound like a union representative, telling me how hard he works, and he is entitled to the pay he thinks he should have. It has really strained our relationship, I hardly talk to him anymore.
