Is there anything to read about difference in grades and academic achievement between then and now?
I know it's probably hard to compare but I just want some info on it.
I don’t know, but what I do know is a lot of text books and curriculums from back then are available online, and reading those will show you just how much the American education system in general has deteriorated.
I know that if we were allowed to continue to isolate ourselves and decide what education standards we would hold ourselves to, with proper funding and the supportive communities that we had before white physical and political terrorism and integration, we would probably be on the same level or better off than the immigrant groups coming here kicking all our ass today.

I definitely agree with all of that.
Hate to say this but you realize how fukked up this society is when you see that the education system is about keeping the America class system the way it is. In other words, they want black people to stay an underclass which is why they stay giving schools which are mostly black populated and which are also in low income communities the worst education and less funding. Its purposely done. Hell, if you arent in the suburbs where you go to a good school or a private school, you're screwed.
How do you counter that? Then you have charter schools which I forgot how it was explained to me but it was fukked up.
Basically we have to save ourselves. Many people realize this and they get it where some people dont. Unfortunately, they make it out where they make sure that the collective doesn't succeed or isnt educated enough to be able to form an economic class that can support itself and needs to rely on the government for assistance, jobs, or hustles. shyt is fukked up. In other words, folks gotta be willing to build their own and that has to come from an interest from the community. Obviously theres gonna be people that get in the way but folks gotta build their own community instead of letting someone else build one for them because it's not gonna be their shyt if thats the case.

Eh....
This is just my personal experience but I went to schools that were literally 90-99% black. Central, Westport and Paseo in Kansas City, Missouri.
The state threw money at the school district to attract white students. Mind you, I'm white, but was already there because I lived in the hood. The white people they were trying to attract were out in the 'burbs.
Anyway, the schools were terrible. Some (like the old Paseo on 19th and Summit) were literally falling apart. They got renovated and/or new facilities were built solely to lure white kids in.
So it's kind of a catch-22 because if the school is all black then the state most likely ain't gonna give it the resources it needs. The only way they will, is with the promise of white students.
Which is fukked up, but I literally seen this first hand.

They do, but only to the "high" achieving students.
They were called "Gifted" back in my elementary school (yea, kids were learning finances at 4th-5th grade) but they didn't extend that class to everyone.
I knew folks who would only show up to certain classes because they enjoyed them or the teacher spoke to them like a human being.
Goes a long way.

This is one of those racial "blind" spots that I think some folks don't recognize as being a part of the European Conditioning.
You have to first admit that just because someone speaks a certain way doesn't take or measure their intelligence.
But it takes time, code switching can mess you up mentally.
I've had some GREAT white teachers. The problem is the system, not the individuals choosing a career path they know pays pennies.
