The Board of Education has decided this week that students in the Pomona Unified School District will need to complete an ethnic study class to meet graduation requirements from grade 2025-26.
In a unanimous vote on Wednesday, September 15, the Board of Trustees adopts a new policy, develops plans to carry out the required course work, and builds administrative and educational capacity to meet curriculum standards. Established a committee for.
The new course applies to 9th grade students entering high school in the fall of 2025 and must eventually complete at least two semesters, or two five-credit ethnic studies.
Although the curriculum is not yet complete, the Board’s resolution aims to “promote and systematize true awareness of ethnic diversity and educate students about the culture, history and contributions of ethnic communities in multiethnic societies. “We said in a statement on Thursday.
“We expect our students to be the best as citizen-oriented individuals in class and in the community, and therefore the best traditional and non-traditional to realize their full potential. Educational options must be provided, “said Richard Martinez, director of the PUSD.
The four-year gap between implementations is intended to create a thorough curriculum, said Lilia Fentes, assistant superintendent of education services, Thursday.The district follows the ethnic research curriculum approved She said, according to the state board of education in March. The curriculum focuses on the history and contributions of Asian Americans, Blacks, Latin Americans, and Native Americans, along with lessons on Arab-Americans, Jewish-Americans, Pacific Islands-Americans, and Seek-Americans. doing.

“Seek-Americans”
LOL, what? Illegals maybe?
“Ethnic study” is just another way of saying “Whitey bad.”
Racists promoting racism.
Teaching these kids to hate.
Around here we have mixed families. Blacks, whites, Asians, Hispanics, etc. their beautiful children don’t deserve this sh*t. It’s very confusing for their children. This is nucking futs.
My nephew grew up in Okla. his folks were mixed race. He was so confused,even on who to date. There is enough UGLY in the world without making kids feel bad about their dammm skin.
Teach kids how to mend their own clothes, cook a meal, balance a checkbook...
Might be good for a laugh?
I would tell my kid(s) before taking the course.
Just remember civilization would have never advanced as far and as fast without whitey.
And so the tribalism worship continues.
Pomona Unified School District or PUSD serves approximately 30,000 Pre-K-12 students and 17,000 adult learners at 44 schools in Pomona and Diamond Bar, California. It is located 30 miles east of downtown Los Angeles, and is the third-largest school district in Los Angeles County.
Just another name for “Critical Race Theory”, or the “1619 Project”. the newest levers the pro-Marxist theoreticians are using to secure an openly socialist economic system in that territory once known as “The United States of America”.
Appealing to class warfare or economic inequalities does not work. Just like they never seem to find the “right people” to make the system work.
I would study the Norse.
WTF are Seek-Americans? Sikh?...
Ah, publik skoolz and the National Eddikashun ASS-ociation.
Their children can’t read, can’t write, can’t handle real logic, but they’ll recite poorly researched and laughable “studies” crap created by folks who have no useful purpose save for creating CO2 and cr*p.
The majority of students attending PUSD schools are colored youth, with Latin youth accounting for 86% of the student population and black students accounting for 4.1%. Data for the 2019-20 academic year.
90% is a lot more than the majority!
For the 2021-22 school year, there are 41 public schools serving 23,673 students in Pomona Unified School District. This district’s average testing ranking is 4/10, which is in the bottom 50% of public schools in California.
Public Schools in Pomona Unified School District have an average math proficiency score of 27% (versus the California public school average of 40%), and reading proficiency score of 41% (versus the 51% statewide average).
It is noted that enrollment in charter schools has increased every year over the last five years of which data is provided. It now accounts for about three to four percent.
I wouldn’t be too sure of this. What are they going to do...hold them back? A large enough minority of students coming out of high school as it is are being graduated illiterate or unable to do basic math. Currently grades from failing classes doesn’t mean anything, just that the student was there...maybe. And when they find out the consequences of this decision, they will have to try to get the feet out of their mouths.
The real laugh is that the students that are passing and getting content out of their classes will pass it like all the others as they are not going to make the content difficult and these students were achievers already. And the ones that won’t pass it probably weren’t passing other classes and it would be in their best interest to be held back another year to complete the full curriculum by repeating classes. And by making it a mandatory requirement for graduation, they won’t bring them in for just one class as it is not cost effective and will display their failures as teachers, blatantly, when the quality of the students failing for this class is exhibited.
So this is not a bad thing. It accomplishes two things:
1. It will force the school system to keep behind a student which will give an opportunity to repeat and possibly pass a class legitimately without allowing them to be pushed forward into unprepared failure.
2. It will identify the failures of the schools “no student left behind” misinterpretation that it is better to have them graduate with their peers than graduate them educated. (Which was not what that program was designed for)
So, this action may not be the end of the world but maybe the start of a new and better one...kids actually getting educated because the schools are being caught just barely earning their paycheck by throwing failures out into oblivion.
I think it’s great. It is for the failing kids, at least. And another funny is that the ones that don’t care about school will tell them to shove it and not go back. They will become fast food servers and possibly the criminals of the future. And guess whose fault it is? Hint: it won’t be society, it will be a failing self righteous liberal school system. It’s past time for this. This is a sheep in wolf’s clothing.

they need to know that in order to get a diploma you are notified and on record that you, whitie know your place in THIER bigger picture of America. THE MAJORITY IN THIS COUNTRY HAS BEEN CAST AS THE MINORITY, and its looks like they just extorted you and your family. Step out of line in your future career and we will hold you responsible and possible take away your diploma. sounds about right
I’m sure there’ll be a mandatory course on “Gay studies” as well.
This ought to make our kids “job ready” for the 21st century. I can see employers really really wanting this for their employees.
Why not start with the Visigoths in Rome, A.D. 410 - or go back even further, to the "Sea Peoples" who "enriched" Egyptian civilization during the 19th Dynasty?

Those who "seek" to become Americans, i.e., illegals.
They're now a kind of American, yuh see! And is important that our children learn how they better America.
