Black students in New York state are 44 percent more likely than white students to have a teacher rated “ineffective” in math, and 35 percent more likely to have one rated “ineffective” in English, startling new figures from the state Education Department show. The unprecedented analysis stemmed from the results of the statewide teacher-evaluation system, which for the first time required student performance on standardized exams to factor into teachers’ ratings.

People who drink one glass of red wine a week but not more than three are healthier. Drink red wine. It makes you healthy.
This is the old tail wagging the dog fallacy that propagandists use.
Just like black persons are more likely to be pulled over by cops.
People who live in a shithole ghetto are more likely to use drugs.
Listen folks. People who use drugs live in the ghetto because of the drugs, not the other way around. Black people get pulled over because they commit 10 times more crime. And, people who only drink one to three glasses of red wine are mostly upper middle class people who live longer anyway.
Sounds to me like this is a problem created by the teachers unions.
Because they harass the hell out of the good White teachers. Who the hell would want to stand in front of a classroom full of bellowing ferals?
Effective or ineffective, it’s nearly impossible to teach students who don’t want to learn - and make it nearly impossible for anyone else around them to learn.
How can a teacher be effective when er’body be twerkin?
I went to see one of the teachers of a black graduate I interviewed. The teacher worked at my company and was an adjunct professor who had given this incompetent graduate a good grade in electronics. The teacher told me that if he gave the black students the grades they deserved he’d not return to teach the next year. He rolled his eyes and commented on the politics that required two sets of standards, one white and one black. I asked if he thought he was doing the black students any favors. He said no, but if he treated them equally he wouldn’t be able to teach anybody. (This guy was moderately wealthy and taught because he just loved it.)
I had a few black teachers in elementary school. One explained gravity as being a layer of material on the surface of the earth. And the reason a wheel rolls is that its shape successfully pushes the gravity out of the way.
Startling? Really? Blacks have a language that only loosely resembles English, and that hurts them when it comes time to get a job. Ask a black to speak the word "with" and see if you can tell the difference when they say "whiff", as in whiff a golf ball. Yet, if a teacher tries to correct it, they are told to "f... off...its ma' heritage!" Fine, if that's what you want, but then don't play the victim when you can't get a job in a world where most consumers are white.
That is the type of pedantry up with which I will not put.

Our so-called inner-cities are dying as a result and are a harbinger of things that will soon overtake society-at-large. In each well-publicized encounter between Police and African-Americans. . the common denominator is not JUST race. . .but behavior. . .in each instance, including the recent one in McKinley Texas, an African-American was resisting arrest and was completely unable to deal with authority of any kind. This is why good teachers flee from schools with a large percentage of African-American students. No authority in the classroom, means education will not be happening.
So it's not about race. . it is about behavior and the inability to cite that bad behavior when it is performed by African-American because that citation will only be considered to be motivated by racial hatred. Thus, bad behavior is accepted for all.
Its one thing dress bad and go to WalMart... and its a totally different thing to be just plain dumber than a box of rocks. I'm guessing both for this lady.....
If students are performing poorly then they’re not learning the subject matter, so saying that their teachers are ineffective is accurate. But, it’s also misleading. The “best” teachers gravitate to schools with willing students and little in the way of behavioral problems. The students themselves are creating the atmosphere that attracts or fails to attract the best teachers.
Schools of Education are the place to go if you just want to put your time in and get your degree.
Newer teachers with less experience (ineffective) are getting the jobs teaching in minority schools since no one with any type of longevity wanted to teach unprepared, semi illiterate, professional grievance mongers who don't respect them because they have been taught their entire lives, white people are racist...
Just a thought...
Reminds me of the young black girl who helped integrate Central High in Little Rock in 1957.
A few years ago she came back and spoke to the classes about what she went through at that time. She then noticed the Black kids all had their heads on the desk and not listening.
At that moment she realized she had gone through hell, so black kids could go to a white school, lay their heads on the desk and refuse to learn.
her actual words were...”I went through HELL for this?”
A co-worker’s daughter majored in education, got near perfect grades and a teaching certificate (she is white).
And, she went to the local school district’s booth at a job fair. She asked for basic information, as one would when visiting a job fair - and walked away from the booth with a very clear impression that they didn’t want anything to do with her. So she went on to teach at a very nice private school.
But the school district - every year we hear the same story, and the story I heard just a few months after this encounter was no different. There aren’t enough qualified teachers applying to the district (we are told this is because the pay is too low), and the district has had to hire teachers from third world armpits in Africa and South America. And the story always ends on the same note - these teachers may be inexperienced and english may be their secind language....but they will be a great addition because they bring so much diversity to the school.
In otger words, they wouldn’t give a white applicant the time of day and instead opted for diversity.
After hearing this story, I’m not surprised good teachers shy away from urban schools.
Anon-
The other reason is black students are dangerous. Not all of them, but it only takes one.
No this woman dresses quite nicely. Our schools are full of smartly dressed people in horn rimmed glasses, with posters on their office wall celebrating the pursuit of knowledge - they look the part. But many can’t add fractions, etc.
That’s not even a complete sentence.... and lacks a terminal preposition;)
