It is nice to finally hear it from the horse's mouth.
For fear of banishment, I will just leave this here.

While he hears from (usually white) parents about classroom disruption, some parents of color want to know why students with IEPs are disproportionately black boys. He attributed the disparity to trauma experienced in the home and said teachers are undergoing professional development to learn how to “connect with” students from low-income and minority families, while also setting high expectations for those students
i.e. a disproportionate amount of black kids have shitty parents and we're trying to teach our teachers to take time away from the rest of the class to raise these disruptive kids because their parents should've been sterilized

Clearly that district just needs more money

This might be my favorite line
These kids can't handle regular school that has probably been dumbed down by 3 grades but he wants them to be in gifted classes too.

He said he is concerned about whether the district is serving all children, noting, as he has many times before, that while 49 percent of the students are African American, less than 5 percent of those in gifted classes are African American. He wants to make sure all children are exposed to “rigorous academic instruction.”

Kid comes from welfare household (not exactly the most stable environment) and more than likely will have issues. Kid acts out in class and ruins the education experience for everyone else.
Trust me, I know what I'm talking about. Went to middle school near the projects, and boy did it suck. By 7th grade, the school administrators lowkey segregated us by academic merit and behavior. I was in the "smart" group (twenty females, five boys).

How do white liberals sleep at night knowing they destroyed Black America for political gain?

No, this is the beautiful (or horrifying) part...
quote:
Concerning capacity, Means assured attendees that the district has plenty of resources, despite recent expenditures on AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) training and University of Virginia consultants. For example, Whit Davis has added a second behavioral specialist, he said.
“If there’s a request for staff, we’ll provide the staff,” he said. “Sometimes, it comes down to, it’s difficult to hire people and get them to come to Clarke County.”
quote:
Means also said that with the district’s $1.2 million surplus, his administration has hired an additional 11 or 12 teachers. Also being hired are more social workers, psychologists and counselors for schools to help children succeed socially and academically.

Basically.
Just the other day, a co-worker of mine was looking at state education rankings and was dismayed that Tennessee was in thirties (thanks Memphis). W/o looking at the list, I knew top ten would be a bunch of states from New England and places like Minnesota and Wisconsin. A combination of welfare, culture, and the discipline levels of schools play a huge role.
I don't believe in compulsory education, but I also don't believe in subsidizing bad parenting.

And people wonder what causes great white flight.
They don't want to deal with this bullshite or other people's shitty fricking kids.
Behavioral programs AWAY from school should be enacted. All are not equal. Want them to be? Get involved in raising you kid to be a functioning member of society.
This is also why white America has stopped having kids. WTF wants to deal with this shite?

White liberals live in their own bubbles, that's why. Look at San Fran---the AA pop. has dropped like a rock thanks to the NIMBYs having their way. So if you don't face something on a everyday basis, then what would you really know of the situation?
I guarantee you the biggest supporters of the welfare state come from highly white/wealthy areas, while the biggest critics are in places like the deep south and elsewhere, places where there is a robust number of welfare dependents.

Make no mistake. There's a reason why these impoverished communities demand things like head start. It's so they can have someone else look after their kids at an earlier age. They rely on the state to take care of them from cradle to grave.

Let’s be for real, the greater powers outside don’t want public education to be better. The last thing they want is a well educated populous.

And live a life full of hate and anger for a reason that’s been made up that they bought into and believe.
It’s easy to manipulate the ignorant.

One mother told Means that her 8-year-old son is scared to go to school because of another child’s outbursts. “It’s like a Benny Hill movie” when teachers and administrators chase after him, she said. Meanwhile, she said the other 20 students are “evacuated” to another room that’s not equipped for teaching, where they watch cartoons until the situation is resolved. Another woman who identified herself as a substitute teacher said students have screamed at her and thrown chairs.
Means said students with individual education plans (IEPs)—which can include those with autism, a learning disorder or a physical disability in addition to those with emotional or behavioral disorders—must be in the “least restrictive environment,” which usually means an ordinary classroom. “At what point do you say you tried and move on to Plan B, or in some cases Plan C?”
Means acknowledged that watching a student act out can be “jarring” for other students, but said there’s also a flip side: While he hears from (usually white) parents about classroom disruption, some parents of color want to know why students with IEPs are disproportionately black boys. He attributed the disparity to trauma experienced in the home and said teachers are undergoing professional development to learn how to “connect with” students from low-income and minority families, while also setting high expectations for those students.

Oh good lord. Do you think he's people are going to be republican conservatives if only "democrats would let them off the plantation!! 1!1!"?
These communities are extremely low potential, and these integration mandates just damage the productive communities around them. That is what I care about.

This is only a problem in the south. Unfortunately.
