[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is a school system that is 83% BIPOC spending one cent or one minute on anti racism?  And the  17% white kids come from liberal Democrat families.   Every minute and every penny should be spent on getting at risk kids up to grade level.  [/quote]

BC a student - teacher relationship carries a significant power dynamic and many teachers come into the profession with implicit biases that can make life much worse for those BIPOC students[/quote]

Only 15 percent of black boys meet expectations on English and 9 percent on math.  Every minute of every day should be spent on these two core subjects.  No more anti racism or woke nonsense.  [/quote]

DP:  The WaPo article about PARCC that is cited above has 20% of Black students in DCPS and DCPCS proficient in English.  So 15% for Black boys is not far off.

The article says about 20% of all students (all ethnic groups, all genders) were proficient in Math. 20% overall suggests to me something higher than 6% for Black boys, but neither number is very good.

In sny event, the data exists if you want to address PP's assertion with facts.
