For instance, the percentage of white students scoring at or above grade level (as measured by whether they scored a 3 or higher on the reading FCAT) was 69 percent in 2011-2012, according to the state. For black students, it was 38 percent, and for Hispanics, it was 53 percent.

D Dog...

At first glance it looks like genetics (and probably to some percentage, it is)...BUT

If one looks at Attendance Records, Class Participation Records, Criminal Records, Other School Infractions, Attitude, etc., etc., etc.... there is a plethora of reasons they don't do well!

Simply changing standards based upon race and/or skin color is the School Board's Cop-Out!

Fix the BOEs first, fire worthless teachers and to hell with their Union & hire better teachers, require parental participation and maybe they wouldn't need to use such a stupid sliding scale... Just Sayin'...

On the campaign trail last week Joe Biden said that Planned Parenthood “under law cannot perform any abortion.” The vice president was responding to Romney’s position that he would defund Planned Parenthood. The obvious problem with Biden’s remark is that it does – big time:  

Planned Parenthood itself has published fact sheets indicating that it did 985,731 abortions in just the three years from 2008 through 2010. These included 324,008 abortion in 2008, 332,278 abortions in 2009, and 329,445 abortions
