Yeah, just pass them along.

That’ll improve their lives.

Tell me how it works out when they graduate without math skills, reading skills, and any ability to reason.

I have nothing to do with the story.

I am asking a legitimate question of the parties involved.

If only there was a bell curve distribution of IQ that you could use to identify students who might be incapable of learning certain subjects.

Principal Christina Pierre said in the video. "... There's other ways that we can communicate those things to parents."

I suppose there are also other ways to communicate proper grammar to the students than using it, Christina. You get an F.

With many of today’s kids, making an F is a high bar to reach.

Won’t that make a D the new F? When I was in school, we didn’t have F’s. We had E’s. The bottom of the heap by any other name would smell as bad.

The other problem is that the blacks are “living up” to their own low expectations.
Gibbs-me-dats will never go far in life.

The Soft Bigotry of Low Expectations. Well, at least Bush II was right about one thing.

Worry not my friends. When the red states secede do you think the dumb kids are gonna move to the red states where there’s no welfare? They’ll be able to come in as guest workers with no benefits. Will they report the income? Phat chance. Heh heh.

That’s OK, 0-59.9 is an F also. BITD when I went to school, a D started at 60% a C at 70%, a B at 80%, and an A at 90%.

49% means you belong in trade school or special Ed.

Most inner city students deserve far less than F’s for the amount of effort they give and the school work they don’t produce. But then, the so-called teachers deserve f’s and pink slips.
