I would bet everything that I own that “affirmative” action is at the heart of this fiasco.
I would also bet the same amount that if you could lift the curtain for a closer look this case would be just minor compared to many others taking place.
The system is corrupt. The inmates are running the assylum. Houston is run by affirmative action prize winners. Houston is becoming Detroit and the decay is accelerating. Wait for it, 10 years and it will fall apart completely.
Houston’s fine but HISD has ALWAYS sucked very, very hard. Largest school district in the country, if I’m not mistaken.
All I know is that I cannot send my child to public school in Houston. Even the elite/Vanguard programs are located in crummy schools where she would get rub elbows with and be attacked by ghetto children.
It simply is not safe.
So I spend over 10K a year to not use the schools that my tax dollars pay for.
