I really wish any time race stats are thrown around that they'd also include the numbers versus income. I think you'd find pretty quickly that the white kids that are poor do just as poorly as any other race of similar income.

I hate to think that my tax dollars are going to have to pay to investigate this shit.

Should have put NAACP in the title, probably would have attracted more people.

i find it funny that the system of bussing that he is mad about was started to make schools more racially diverse. i never thought i would see the naacp endorsing neighborhood schools, thats generally a cause supported by rich tahoe driving soccer moms.

can the naacp just not accept that some people are dumber than others and that income is also correlated to this? and that skin color diversity is meaningless.

how about we just get mad at the school system for failing students in general. maybe i am misunderstanding what "proficient means", and it may have changed a lot, but even 76.7% seems terrible to me.

Think about it. Back when our parents were in high school, it wasn't unusual at all for many students just to drop and either be a fuck up or just start their blue collar career at 16. More and more we've instilled in to kids that they have to graduate to live so the ones that are dumb and probably forever will be are in school taking tests and dragging the numbers down. If we had more real blue collar jobs (rather than shipping them out of the country) that would let idiots make a living, we probably wouldn't be pushing so hard for needing a GED and college education.

I know in my rural 4a high school we started off with ~420 kids and graduated ~330. How bad do you think our statistics would look if even half of those that didn't finish stayed around and took tests?

ok, i'm from goldsboro. i went to eastern wayne high school, which is just outside the city limits and is where most of the white kids who live in goldsboro high school (inner city) district go to school.

this argument's been going on at least since i was in middle school and it's fucking stupid. you go to the school closest to you. if you don't want to go to that school, then you can go to any school in the county as long as you provide your own transportation. the white kids won't go to the inner city school because their lives would be hell there. goldsboro HS is like 95% black or more.

dag, reading comprehension ftl.

Then I really don't have a ready explanation for overall shitty scores other than basic problems with the school system affecting all races equally.
