[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh, meant to say also that Texas is not known for its public schools and it has so many ESOL students, it has to focus on achievement gap, not high achievement. So there are factual reasons for the comment. Not bigotry. Unlike all the anti-Asian, anti-black, anti-Indian comments all over DCUM. Wow to you both.[/quote] So anti-black, Asian or Indian is something to be shocked and appalled about, but anti-hispanic is a perfectly acceptable viewpoint, ESPECIALLY if it is tied to anti-Texas sentiment, the most favored bias after anti-Christian on dcum. Okay. Thank you for clarifying the issue for us. Since the top issue that folks complain about in fcps is all the illegal immigrant and new hispanic students bringing down the fcps system, I would think that you would all see Garza's experience and success with these types of students a bonus and not a detriment. Texas actually does well with bringing many, not all, of those low performing immigrant students to a higher level of achievement. Having lived in several states across the wouthwest I would argue that they are the most successful at doing so. However, their sheer numbers of these types of students paint a misleading picture of the success. FCPS haw such a small number of these low achieving students as compared to many other places, includong where she cwme from in Texas. I am hopeful and confident that Garza will actually have measureable success in closing the achievement gap, without causing a ripple with the children at the top.[/quote]
