Project Baltimore has learned, during the first three quarters of this year, nearly half of high school students in City Schools earned a grade point average below a D.

Project Baltimore obtained a chart assembled by Baltimore City Schools. The chart shows the average GPA for every high school grade in the city – freshman through senior. In the first three quarters of this past school year, according to the chart, 41% of all Baltimore City high school students, earned below a 1.0 grade point average. In other words, nearly half of the 20,500 public high school students in Baltimore earned less than a D average.

During the second quarter of the 2019/2020 school year, just before COVID hit, 24% of high school students had a GPA below 1.0. Now, it’s 41 percent.

The reaction to Covid is going to create an entire generation of ditch diggers.

They can still play for the Orioles or Ravens. What's the big deal?

Which means they should get scholarships to Harvard ... otherwise Harvard is racist, right?

I’m always on the side opposite public education.
Many of those students, whilst living in high-risk environments, could be intelligent in ways in which they’re never instructed nor assessed.
Government-run education is amongst the worst mistakes this country ever made.

It wouldn't surprise me if most major inner city public school systems have similar numbers.

Except Atlanta, they just change the grades in Atlanta.


ETA- edited out my double negative.

Grade inflation is so bad. I have a niece (no pics) who had a 4.0 GPA and that still wasn’t good enough to get into UGA. She’s going to Auburn instead.

It’s obvious they need just a year of free pre kindergarten to fix this. Free breakfast and lunch too to help nourish their young minds and bodies.
