I have a few relatives lived in, and kids attend, so-called mediocre school districts. The kids all went from these "looked-down upon schools" off to good colleges and Uni. In fact, one just got admitted to MIT and started last Sept.
I agree that school makes a difference, but too much blame is placed there. If a kid has the aptitude and willingness to do well and parents take the interest, they will do well. This goes for anyone!!
Stop always blaming the system and others out there in the ether!!
Good systems are what make things work. The idea of relying on good humans to produce a standard product is a rubes goldberg solution in our modern welfare state. You blame the system everywhere else in your life but yet here you want to blame the parent. Sociology 101 tells you that it is peer group that contribute most to defining identity. School systems and the atmosphere they create formalizes the status of peer groups here. Good schools produce good students and that is more than a rule of thumb. That is why most of you here yap about the quality of an ivy league education.
You don't need an education, you need a shrink!! You talk so much non-stop that your brain must run dry from the draft!!
When contradicted you come up with these inane responses. I will be here when you take off on Granger for the education of Guyanese kids because lacking intervention promptly we are incubating a bunch of morons there. Then your racism will see the failings of a system but here because your selective racist persona is in full turbo mode you want to blame black people as poor parents when their kids fail. As I said on many occasions, you are just a mediocre jerk who use this forum as a means of selling your racist poison.
