I will guess that what the state of MD considers to be “proficient” is not exactly advanced, either. This is horrendous. I wonder how many of these students are beyond a 7th grade proficiency at better schools?
One question on the test was who Maya Angelou is. They said he was Mayor in DC who smoked crack.

They’s been too busy larnin how to screw and how to hold a pistol sideways. I’d suggest that Nancy Pelosi (D’Alessandro) needs to go home and help “her people.”
The real questions are: if they aren’t proficient in the basics, then what are they preoccupied with during school and who is accountable in the school system for allowing that preoccupation?
