its the schools fault, you got all these closet racist alt right educators

It's the parents. A teacher can only do so much since they aren't at home with every child after school to make sure they study. We're lucky teachers give as much of a damn as they do know considering how little they get paid to put up with these knuckle heads whose parents see school as a daycare and not a place of education and opportunity.

Yes as a parent you catch that but were talking about a whole school district. Everyone doesn't have the time or money to get a tutor thats why teachers are there to teach students.

Only about 2-3 high-schools in PG are halfway descent. So moving to another high-school isn't an option.
Unless you're saying moving to another county that has more white people which isn't an option for black people who want to live around black people.:mjpls:

So that is why I say teachers and county officials should be held accountable.


2 things I can never excuse is people saying they don't have time to look after their health or their children...
when I found out my wife was pregnant I started reading about what universally leads to "success" and "happiness" and was determined to do whatever it takes to giver her an advantage. Fast forward 6 years and she's in first grade but tested into 4th grade math and reading :ohlawd:. Funny thing is, it's easy to do.

Congrats breh. Keep that work up.

It's taught horrible. If they will show how spreadsheets work with algebra.

When they tried to implement common core math people complained about the change. Most parents want a solution to a problem that doesn't involve them. I would do anything for my kid except... I would do that, but..

How it's taught is a problem but not the biggest. The mindset that a child's education totally depends on the teacher is the biggest issue.

That article spent less than 25% of its space talking about the actual solution. In fact, it just says "there's a solution" and that's it. Worse than that, it states poverty is the issue and then spins off into a solution that has nothing to do with solving poverty. :snoop:
I was legit mad at the ending like Wtf is this magical solution??

What kind of techniques did you apply with your daughter
