[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]than actual poor black kids with indivdiual responsibility in poor black neighborhoods are screwed. They can go to school and get staight As and graduate completely unprepared for college and with terrible scores on national tests (remember the kid they followed in teh NPR story had teacher actually teach him something on the day they follwoed him). [/quote] Are you saying teachers don't teach anything? I don't think it's true. I have friend who went to a very bad black school, graduated in top and got into a good college. His family couldn't afford tutors, I assure you. I also know a teacher who has been teaching at a failing school. He is a very good teacher and is very motivated. I don't believe that teachers just give up on those kids. [/quote] Wow. So what do you make of the "teachers" who failed the honor student who was followed by the reporter highlighted in the podcast?
