Was referencing judge Parkers dismantling of the EBR school system/desg order. It brought students with LOTS of culcha and their parent[s], to perfectly good schools and RUINED them ! Not all by themselves but virtually so. White trash parents also contribute heavily !

I taught at a school that was considered one of the worst in the state. I was obtaining my Master's degree at the time and as such had to observe multiple teachers. The teachers at the school I was at were quite exceptional and very talented and easily as good, if not better, than many of the teachers I observed at other, highly rated, schools.
The main difference was that we were lucky to have 5 parents show up to an assembly/play and would be lucky to have 25 parents show up for parent-teacher conferences for an entire school of over 250 kids.
Go to any of the top schools and you will see an overflow of parents at almost every event.
Quite simple, if parents don't invest and care about the students education it won't matter how good the teacher/testing is.

My little cherub tested into Westdale. By far the best elementary in the parish. Otherwise we're still throwing down$5,000-10,000 a year. I like money.

A big drag on Baker’s results has been the failure in the past to hire teachers early enough, something Brister said he is working to rectify this year.
This clown here. My wife (an accountant who decided she wanted to be a teacher) got her first job as a teacher in Baker at their "Magnet" school in 2014. Well in 2015, she was let go a month into the school year for budget cuts so they combined her class with the other 4th grade class. They eventually begged her to come back but she said hell no. That whole district is a shite show and the magnet school is just as bad as the non-magnet schools.

How about fixing what you got instead of running?

You act like people wanna be poor or they don't want to improve their situations.

Most of the people in the projects could afford to skip a few meals.

They could also do something about crime, but it is usually someone else's fault.
Hell even look in the trailer parks, it is someone else's fault they live like that. They didn't catch a break, they didn't get lucky, etc etc etc....
We are a society of excuses for our behavior and quick to point the finger

Which is why urban schools never improve despite the liberal emphasis on funding and hiring teachers. Kids coming from broken and single parent homes who are being sent to school as daycare are at a much higher disadvantage than those with parents who read to them and place importance on doing well academically.

This.
You could throw these same kids into any parochial school in BR and they'd still have the same performance because their home life is a fricking disaster.

This is a cultural issue and only a cultural issue.
Let me outline the issue of culture:
- Children born to single parents
- children raised in a culture where prison time is seen as a rite of passage
- children raised in a culture where trying to educate yourself and improve your standing in society is seen as "pretending to be white" or selling out
- raised primarily in poverty (see: single family home, criminal records, breeds unstable home lives, no educational mastery, unable to attain high paying job)
- culture that revolves around music that glorifies murder, promiscuity, and drug dealing as a way to earn a living
- unstable home with no adult input on out of school educations (e.g., bed time reading, help with homework, concern for child's education in general)
In short school becomes a social gathering devoid of education, because education isn't valued, isn't instilled, and at worst actually frowned upon

It is a Poverty of The soul that afflicts these schools.No Dads, no discipline, no role models, no respect for honest work or education , no mastery of job skills, etc.
Family, Education and hard work solves that. Black Americans ALONE among the races, have decided to skip these steps and go directly to fail. 80 fricking percent of black babies are born out of wedlock. Sadly, blacks are precisely where they deserve to be based on their actions.
And before you melt, let me be clear that I'm not particularly optimistic about wtf is going on with white people either. It's a race to the bottom for maybe 40% of the country.
And the sad thing, is the solution is RIGHT THERE in front of everybody's eyes. Family you dumb sons of bitches. Mom and Dad .
