How can this be after 8 years of the Obama Administration?
Guilt isn’t enough. Lobotomize Whites and Asians!
/S
You can spend all the money in the world, but it will be mostly wasted when you have a culture that doesn’t make education a priority.
The lag is because of the “special programs”.
Not despite of them.
Blacks are raised in one of the worst cultures on earth of their own design; the African-American Urban Culture, where achievement is met with a beat down.
STUDY, COMMITMENT, COURAGE.
Yes, how after eight years of the Kenyan?
And how can it be true since the same educators that “fixed things” last time, will now be given a chance to do it again, for what seems like the 100th time, each one more of a failure than the last.
We need some new ideas, and the education encampment needs to be shut out of it, until the decisions come down.
We could replace every teacher with a mother and a home school plan and do ever so much better.
Make “Hooked on Phonics” a requirement for their Senior Year or High School.
There is a solution to this problem
However, the NAACP would object to the solution.
Hint...The solution is not more money...
Since we’re talking California, what are these assessment / learning standards?
Until they find the courage to address the root causes, nothing will change. This had to do with IQ, black culture and the destruction of the family.

In a nutshell you have named the root cause of the black educational shortfall.
But if the blacks accept your (and my) recommendation they will be accused of “acting white”. That is a sin in the black communities and their Democrat overlords have zero interest in steering them in that direction.
When you keep doing the same thing and expect different results......
IOW, more lawfare, more riots, more burning cars, more race-norming and quotas at the college level (those are unconstitutional in California, btw), more denunciations of "white privilege" etc... Thanks artichokegrower.
The entire urban black culture is at odds with individual black success through education.
Lower the standards then everyone will pass.
Yup. All three of these components factor in.
It’s called studying. Behaving in class. Speaking proper English.
That was my first thought about what their “solution” would be. Throw cash at it AND lower the standards.
Blame their parents.
BTW, though I left High Screwel at 15 and went to college, I was only able to do so because my parents encouraged my curiosity and creativity by making sure I could find answers to questions with our own library at home.
Further, they supported subjects I found interesting and were okay that In was not competent in one subject: Algebra.
Although I used Algebra in Advance AP Mechanical Drafting, I had absolutely no use for its theory and solving problems that do not exist.
Still, I am very good at mathematics and the corollary activity of learned reason and probability I did excel at and that was Chess.
High School champion and county champion.
Oh, and I had nothing but straight A’s or better in every other subject.
I think children who have parents not taking an interest in their education often asked themselves “If this doesn’t matter to my parents?” And then come to the obvious conclusion, with its corollary AKA failure....
