Welcome

Hey welcome bloggers.
I am very happy to share my opionions with you. Please feel free to state yours!

Attending a Public School in the South Bronx is a first hand experience of the corruption within the New York City Public School System. The system that abondand hundred and hundreds of students. It has given us the "big achievement gap".

The racial and economic achievement gaps are a fact that many simply cannot seem to accept—morally, economically or socially. We know that all children can learn to the same high levels, so we must confront and change those things that are holding groups of students back-our children.

The U.S. Department of Education describes the achievement gap as the difference in academic performance between different ethnic groups. This gap is defined as the injustice between white students and other ethnic groups and between English learners and native English speakers, socioeconomically disadvantaged and non-disadvantaged, and students with disabilities as compared to students without disabilities.


The more aware we are. The more successful students we will have. A better future for everyone.
