Bad news for Baltimore schools: a new project reveals an alarming number of schools had no students proficient in math.

A new project that analyzed 2017 state testing data found that one-third of Baltimore, Maryland, high schools have zero students proficient in math.

What are the numbers?


Project Baltimore found that 13 out of 39 high schools in the city had zero students that were proficient in math, according to the testing data. Another six schools only had 1 percent of their student body who tested proficient in math.

Why in the world would they need to have math skills? Math is just an artifact of white oppression, right?

Learning mathematics requires discipline.  Public schools in urban centers typically cannot enforce discipline for a variety of political reasons (none of them good).  Add to that a faculty who will range from the math phobic types who typically major in elementary ed to "woke" leftists who regard mathematics as "white", and it would be amazing for anyone to come out of such schools proficient in math.
