The issue is did the principle tell the teachers to pass kids no matter what or to teach them better so they can pass? Since the teachers were due a bonus perhaps that means in general the teachers were not performing up to standard.

Why would the poser immediately turn this into a race issue?
Nate, the reason is that we all know that racism is the catch all problems in this country.

Well I think Google Earth is a right wing conspiracy. It was designed to stop us from being able to move from place to place since it tells us where we think we are we aren't and where we don't think we want to be that is where we are.

Understand??

What this tells me is that about on average, 10-15 percent of Harlems output in "graduates" is worth offering a job. And I'd be taking a chance in doing that.


Is this being Racist on my part, or Common Sense as a thinking business owner?
