    Minority pupils compose 89 percent of Chicago’s public-school student body. In third through eighth grades, the percentage of Black students proficient in reading and math are 11 percent and 6 percent. Hispanics: 17 percent, 11 percent. The percentage of 11th-graders proficient on the SAT in reading and math: Black students 10 and 8; Hispanics: 16 and 17. In 22 schools, not a single student can read at grade level; in 33, not a single student can do math at grade level. Even the supposedly good news is disgusting: Last year, the graduation rate was a record high 82.9 percent — even though chronic absenteeism is 49 percent among low-income students.

    These are the results of public-school operational spending increasing 58 percent in a decade, to $26,356 per pupil.
    Not giving the parents of these children school choice because you’re so beholden to teacher’s unions is what actual racism in K-12 education looks like.

    You going to address this or nah?
    No , dont know the scratched surface details.
    Who comiled data and their agenda, everybody in this has an agenda we agree.

    When still coaching sport 10 years ago home schooled kid were for lack ofa better word odd.
    2024 teaching music about 2/3 of my students are home schooled and I"m finding the opposite to be true.
    Well adjusted young people.

    Please pass on whatever info you have.
    Will try to make time to read
    But, I'd ask the same, look at the roots of and the people constituting this shadow privitization movement to create a for profit education system.

    We all agree the education needs repair.
    We share that base
