BALTIMORE (WBFF) — Baltimore City is facing a devastating reality as the latest round of state test scores are released.
Project Baltimore analyzed the results and found a shocking number of Baltimore City schools where not a single student is doing math at grade level.
“We’re not living up to our potential,” said Jovani Patterson, a Baltimore resident who made headlines in January 2022, when he filed a lawsuit against Baltimore City Schools. The suit claims the district is failing to educate students and, in the process, misusing taxpayer funds.
“We, the taxpayer, are funding our own demise,” Patterson said at the time.
Patterson was born in Baltimore. He has seen the failures firsthand. But when Project Baltimore showed him the latest test results for the city, he was momentarily rendered speechless.
“My immediate reaction is, take your kids out of these schools,” said Patterson.
The Maryland State Department of Education recently released the 2022 state test results known as MCAP, Maryland Comprehensive Assessment Program.
Baltimore City’s math scores were the lowest in the state. Just 7 percent of third through eighth graders tested proficient in math, which means 93 percent could not do math at grade level.
and we’re paying bigly for those results! 🙁
Democrats do not care about TEACHING kids anything other than who has their feeling hurt the most, how white people always keep them down and who can be the strangest person in class.
Secondly, WHERE ARE THE PARENTS??
Don’t tell me they were, all of a sudden, SURPRISED that their 16 year old kid knows how to count grams and ounces, but can’t add 10 and 5 and get the right answer.
When your future is living in public housing (like your momma before you and her momma before her) with 4 kids by 4 different “fathers”, or doing a 15-25 stretch in a local prison, why would you need to be able to add or subtract??
I don’t see ANY of those parents demanding a change.
Just keep the checks rolling.
Keep cheering your democrat leaders.
They know stupid people are easy to lead.
75% of fathers are “away.”
Mothers can’t fill that void.
The schools have lost control to the degree that they let the students run the school . At home, the “parents” have no control of their “children” and this attitude is carried over into the classroom.
Turn the B-more schools into military academies. If they pass, they go straight into the military to learn a skill set or trade skill so that they are employable and have value to society. If they fail out, they go directly to America’s garbage dumps (in appropriate hazmat gear) and sort those landfills for everything that can be recycled for 30 years. At the end of their 30 years, they can retire like any other civil service worker on a pension.
Just look at the city’s leaders…………….you have the likes of Marilyn Mosley, and the other ilk like her.
