[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So we are all super concerned that the school missed one word? Even though everyone reading it can fully understand what is being stated? Got it.

And we wonder why people don’t want to go into teaching.

TBH, what annoys me is that the school will invest extra time and resources into only Hispanic students to meet this goal rather than just trying to help everyone. To me, that’s the problem. My friend who is a teacher calls this out all the time- she says that she is told to only worry about her “black and brown babies.” She says that even though her class is 75% white and that some of those white kids struggle just as much as the POC kids, they are truly not worried about. That was eye opening to me and is way more concerning than a school leaving out a word in their goal.[/quote]

If you understand the math, this is not a "typo" or "missing word" you could make.  So there are two possibilities:

1) They don't know the math.

2) They know the math and realize how absolutely freaking ridiculous it will sound to say they will increase the pass rate by 180%, so they decide to fudge it with the language and hope no one notices.[/quote]

+1. I’m going to go with the former because they would want the lowest possible bar to clear. [/quote]
