Lancaster H.S. is a pretty large school. 3,000 may not be too far off.

Their concerns, however, are not without merit; statewide, more minority students are placed in continuation schools, Parker said.

Say what? California is the only state in the empire where whites are a minority. Does this mean more whites are sent to continuation schools?

"If you are going to tell children about discipline or test scores, that comment should be made to the general school population," said Marcia Wilson, a black parent of current and former Lancaster High students. "You go to school and they point out you are somewhat different. It doesn't matter who it is. I find that ugly."

Here is a parent who gets it. I don't understand why the leftists keep going down that worn "wrong" path....

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

Separate but equal assemblies for the whites afterwards should fit right into the liberal world-view.

Some of the most racist people I have met in my life tend to be black. But, it's not racist according to these black people.....it's more like unity.

"Whites" are a minority everywhere. I'm pretty sure that there are no English-Americans, French-Americans, Swedish-Americans, Norwegian-Americans, Irish-Americans, Russian-Americans, Croatian-Americans, Slovenian-Americans, Serbian-Americans, Greek-Americans, Albanian-Americans, Montenegrin-Americans, Bulgarian-Americans, Romanian-Americans, Spanish-Americans, Portuguese-Americans, Finnish-Americans, Danish-Americans, German-Americans, Czech-Americans, Slovakian-Americans, Polish-Americans, Belorussian-Americans, Macedonian-Americans, Ukrainian-Americans, Estonian-Americans, Latvian-Americans, Lithuanian-Americans, Georgian-Americans, Azerbaijiani-Americans, Armenian-Americans, Dutch-Americans, Italian-Americans or Maltese-Americans that comprise 50.1% of the USA population.

Everyone's a minority, you just have to look at the data a certain way.

In 1900, white people comprised 30% of the world's population. In 2000, white people comprised 15% of the world's population. The percentage projected for the year 2100 is THREE percent. Now that's a minority!

Perhaps to find the root sources of testing and behavior problems they should find out if these are some common factors:

Do they eat homecooked meals and do they eat breakfast?

Did their parents read to them for 15 mintutes a day when they were young?

Do they have both parents at home?

In other words, are the praents in the home acting like parents?

"Sometimes you have to tell the brunette, 'You don't have to be a blonde to have fun,' " Richard said.

I know that from personal experience.

I think this is a wake up call going on around the country.

Educator says blacks underachieve - "Do you think so low of yourself….?"

Black leaders are speaking out on education
