[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So many of you are so ignorant to the issues facing our youth today- not only in our nations Capitol, but across the country. DC Met is just one of the many examples of schools that are failing our students that has gone ignored for so long. Ms. Minor was not an effective principal because her students didn't make growth. To blame the failure of our schools on our students is ignorant and racist. The fact is, the expectations that you set for students determine how successful they will be. We can't just keep putting a bandaid on the problem- teachers and administrators must prove they should be teaching by showing growth with our students- no matter what the circumstances are. Take some time to educate yourselves - especially if you have children in school.[/quote]

Yes, please do educate yourself - if you watched the documentary (and even if you didn't) you should know that poverty and chaotic lives outside of school plays a huge role in how kids perform inside school[/quote]
