Until we begin to address the root causes of the disparities, much like we have began to address the Social Determinants of Health, we need to address the Social Determinants of Education. All the studies have shown that the best outcomes for a child is to grow up in a stable two parent home, where the parents are actively involved, not only from an educational stand point but from almost every other measurement as well. The next best thing is to offer school choice where parents can send their child to better schools and schools have to compete for the children through elevating their own performance. The third thing would be to get rid of the Teachers Union, they are not looking our for our children or the quality of education. They have one goal and that is to protect teachers first, second and third. Any thing that begins to measure a teachers competency or performance is quickly slammed and eliminated. The reality is this isn’t a black or white issue it’s a societal issue that refuses to address the cultural and institutional practices and policies that handicap our children from the get go.
Very well said, Don B.
Yes! I applaud this effort. All kids should have the opportunity to take AP and advanced class work no matter the address of their school.
Anderson schools have some of the most academically at risk kids in the State. Race only matters to Democrats, but I am confident they have a high ratio of students of color. These students were denied at least a week of school because their Heroes!, I mean, teachers were on an unauthorized strike. Can you ask the “business coalition” if this is a tactic they approve of?
Don B. & Chuck W.
For once in your life, can you guys try to understand that there is a problem based in our current reality and either suggest how you or your team/tribe can help work the problem – or please stand back and not bring your political agendas to the discussion? Suggesting that a 2-parent household is the answer or a teacher’s strike for fair wages is where the problem is generated, and is where the current solution lies is sad at best, ridiculously condescending, and at worst just another denial of the decades of systemic inequity within our education systems.
Thanks to all the groups who have joined this effort to generate the report – now let’s get to work on the solutions!
It’s not political agendas, it’s moral and ethical, and to try and dismiss that as a big basis for the disparity then nothing will ever solve the problem. As long as we refuse to address the cultural effects of the gangsta culture, the demeaning lyrics of our women, the glorification of drugs and the constant refrain from leaders that you can’t achieve in America because of your race, your sex, your income level, etc. our kids begin to believe it and give up, and the first place they give up is in schools. We need to empower the parents through school choice, let the money follow the child not automatically go to the school.
We also refuse to equip everyone with proper birth control and the knowledge on using it.
Less unplanned pregnancies would break the cycle you discuss.
I’d like to see local business groups repeat this program in parts of Indianapolis, since, well, the data shows it works. This is from 2015 and written shortly after the program was scrapped by the GOP, in part because they wanted abstinence-only to be taught.
“Over the past seven years, Colorado has run an experiment to see if it could lower the rate of unintended pregnancies, cut abortions – and save the state government some money, too.
The Colorado Family Planning Initiative (CFPI) offered low-income women and teenagers access to low or no-cost contraceptive devices, including IUDs and implants, and trained providers in insertion and counselling techniques. Last year, researchers reported significant drops in the birth rate among teens and young adult women in participating counties. The abortion rate among women between 15 and 19 years old dropped by more than a third; high-risk pregnancies by a fourth.
In July the governor’s office issued a glowing press release, crediting the program with a 40% statewide drop in teen birth rates between 2009 and 2013 – and a 35% drop in abortions.
But, despite the program’s widely reported successes, last Wednesday Colorado’s Republican-controlled senate killed a bill that would sustain and expand CFPI services.”
