[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Crummy schools have had trillions dumped into them over the last 40 years. People do not change. Whether it’s culture or genetics, I don’t know. What I do know is that the needle NEVER moves. All the so called improvements are fake, the result of cheating, data juking and other manipulating schemes. And we need stop painting inner city teachers and admins as selfless saints. The most unqualified POS six-figure admins I’ve ever dealt with were inner city admins.[/quote]

I worked in one of those schools.  The problem was not the teachers or the admin or the curriculum or the students.  The problem was poverty, which schools don't cause and can't solve alone.  No amount of money put into a school for anything at all is going to help a kid who goes home to a crack house every day, who is abused, hungry, whose mom leaves him locked out of the house all night while she has "clients" in, and so on.  All that really happens and it happens right here in Northern Virginia.  That's why the needle doesn't move.  It's people that need money, not schools.[/quote]

:roll: Oy vey, every poor kid has a crack addicted mom turning tricks in the house? You have issues. Poor in the US is actually fairly comfortable. Why does everyone have to exaggerate and make countless excuses?

Furthermore, if we buy your premise that most of these kids have drug addicted parents and parents engaging in such insane conduct, HOW IN THE WORLD can you blame smart parents for fleeing (flight) such schools? I'll be darned if I let my child anywhere near such people.[/quote]
