Ghost students: Failure and apparent fraud at one Baltimore high school
Hotair ^ | April 23,2021 | JOHN SEXTON

Last month a Baltimore TV station aired a report about a local high school that was doing an extraordinarily bad job for students. The report focused on one student (his name was withheld) at Augusta Fells high school who had been absent from class about half the year and had only passed three classes in four years. And yet this student had been promoted through the grades year after year. The most shocking part of the story was that the student’s 0.13 GPA placed him solidly in the middle of his class.

In Maryland, schools receive funding per student. The more students enrolled, the more money the school gets. City Schools receives nearly $16,000 per student, every year. So, the question is, did North Avenue get taxpayer money to educate 21 students who were on the rolls of Augusta Fells, but were not actually attending the school? That would come out to $331,653 of taxpayer money to educate students who weren’t there

Season 5 of The Wire.
AS long as the kid shows up one day in September and one day in October, then the school gets full funding for that kid the rest of the school year.
The vice principle hires a couple of guys in van to round up kids on the list to make sure they each get their “September day”. All the truant kids are in on the scam too.

And white people are racist......this is probably going on in all democratic run cities...

And you wonder why black think whitey is racist...

The kid graduates from school and knows ...nothing...but thinks he knows something...and whitey will not hire him because he does not know anything

There’s a korean series on netflix that I like “Bring it on ghost”. It’s subtitled but it’s a pretty good ghost story.

A young college student works as an exorcist because he can see ghosts. And he ends up falling in love with this girl ghost.
