Not One Student Was Proficient In Math In 23 Baltimore Schools: REPORT
by Reagan Reese
Feb 10, 2023

In 23 Baltimore City Schools, zero students tested proficient in math in 2022, according to a report by Project Baltimore.

Through an analysis of 150 Baltimore City Schools, 23 of them, including 10 high schools, eight elementary schools, three high schools and two middle schools, no students met math grade-level expectations, according to a report by Project Baltimore. Approximately 2,000 students took the state administered math exams that tested proficiency levels. (RELATED: Chicago Educators Get An ‘A+’ On Teaching While Their Students Get An ‘F’ On Reading)

“It just sounds like these schools, now, have turned into essentially babysitters with no accountability,”  Jovani Patterson, a Baltimore resident who sued the district for not properly educating its students, told Fox 45 News. “This is the future of our city. We’ve got to change this.”

An additional 20 schools in the district had no more than two students proficient in math, Project Baltimore reported. Another three schools in the district, which are for incarcerated students and students with disabilities, had no students that met grade-level expectations.

Approximately 7% of third through eighth graders at Baltimore City School met grade level expectations in Math in 2022, according to the Maryland State Department of Education.

Thank you, teachers' unions.

Just lower the standards.  Problem solved.  It it all about equity. 
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Wow.  That is truly astounding, even for a democrat-led hellhole like Baltimore.

I think they've hit bottom and are tunneling for Hell now.

Baltimore: not one student at these 23 schools can do math at grade level

Baltimore: not one student at these 23 schools can do math at grade level
 
Public school teachers need a raise.

Sure, why not? It’s a tough job, and if they can get most of their students to learn the basics it makes sense to pay them well.


But what if, say, not one of their students can perform basic tasks at grade level?

Not even one. Nada. Zip. Bupkus.

That’s the situation in Baltimore, where the city brags that they have some of the highest teacher salaries in the country.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

You can put books on the back of a jackass but that won't make it educated. **nononono*

Thank you, teachers' unions.
CDC, NIAID, FDA all share in the glory for school shutdowns, which have seriously harmed academic progress and competence.

Had they not lied to America and the World, none of that theater would have been necessary, and the kids wouldn't have had their education interrupted.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Math is racist. Grammar is racist. Reading is racist. Writing is racist. Science is racist. Achievement is racist.
What the woke are doing is regressing to the 1800s, when Black people were not allowed to read and write.
They even want to bring back segregation. This is all going backwards. Nothing 'progressive' about it. The opposite is true.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

In that case, I say "Stand back out of the way and let them go through with it".

The "old ways of the South"... were better.
I will make no apologies for saying so.

Could anything be more damning? Or revealing?
