You continue to bad mouth these schools, you need to get more involved. When do you have time to visit the schools? I want you to visit every elementary school in the parish beginning with O.W. Dillon. I guarantee you will quickly see the difference. The standards are the same, in that both schools are graded the same. Kentwood and Amite have a higher % of students from poverty stricken homes. DOE's research shows, it's difficult for those students to perform at grade level. So instead of challenging every student at the same level, those schools are giving a slower track. I prefer one rigor standard across the board regardless of the financial status of homes.

I would love to treat you to lunch and have this discussion.

Not sure where to post this and I don't believe its thread worthy. But, I really wish we had gotten Adoree Jackson. Dude is a beast.

The difference between Ponchy and Kentwood are just the kids that go to the schools. Parents of low income students seem to not care as much about education as others. The only people at fault for the failing of Kentwood are the parents of those students.
