They’ll blame math for being racist. This is why we are going to lose to China...
Evil whites at it again.
Maybe they don’t get enough tax money to get after the problem. Or maybe we need to pay teachers more to get better performance. (Sarc)
The “pandemic” didn’t affect learning. Government affected learning.
combine black family dysfunction with bloated, ideological, lowest-common-denominator teachers unions - and this is the result.
And the Left loves it. Another generation of blacks blindly following behind them.
Deep Blue Schenectady, totally woke leftist democrats and certainly a lazy staff of teachers. The city is struggling and will continue to struggle due to inept Democrat leadership. This is why vouchers are needed, to help the Blue city kids escape poverty.
These tests are EASY, and are simply trying to prove that the kids are at least getting the most BASIC of instruction.
This kind of test should never be failed EVER.
Parents should be suing.
Those tests are racist!
(sarcasm, but probably will happen)
I have a friend in Taiwan that just started his daughter in kindergarten. She and her classmates are 3 years old. Let that sink in.
Jeez…. Did they send the top half of the bell curve of their students off to the gas chambers. Or did all the above average parents take their children and move to Florida?
/not 100% sarcasm
While Schenectady is a obvious low point in schooling, the state as a whole seems to have educational issues.
Can the kids even win at Schenect the dots?
I bet they are good at kilos, and pounds.
Do away with the test. Simple.
But keep on throwing $25,000 at each one of the students.
Destined to be homeless, druggies, drug dealers, dependents or live at home forever with absolutely no life skills.
Nice going, democrats and your stupid liberal policies and takeover of the school systems.
Why do they need to be good at math? We always need a lot of men to do hard, physical labor, or skills such as plumbing, carpentry and masonry. Did they test the kids for that? Of course not. Because only in America are we totally obsessed with “academics.”
Just add points to the score of all black and hispanic students. Call them equity points or diversity points or reparation points, problem solved!
A friend who was from Rochester NY told me that teachers there make 90,000 a year in that city. They have a really powerful union. This was back in the early 90s.
