it's chasing the wind.  Things need to be fixed at home period.  PP nailed it.  Teachers aren't social workers or counselors expecting schools to fix neglect and indifference at home is a fools errand. [/quote]

It's always a joy to read on DCUM that poor, black, and Hispanic parents are neglectful and indifferent.[/quote]

If the majority of kids failing are minorities, whose fault is it?

Should we blame the teachers?  the curriculum?  a combination of the two?

What role do parents play?

I've spend 90% of my time in DCC and NEC schools. I would often say that we ARE the gap.  Now, I'm at a school with whites who are underperforming - kids who would rather work than attend school, kids with poor attendance, kids with gaps in skills.

Should we blame the teachers?  the curriculum?  a combination of the two?

And again, what role do parents play?

See where I'm going with this?

[b]DCUM doesn't see parts of the county where there are poor whites!  [/b]

You all need to get out more.
