Florida Passes Plan For Racially-Based Academic Goals

Palm Beach, Fla. (CBS TAMPA) – The Florida State Board of Education passed a plan that sets goals for students in math and reading based upon their race.

On Tuesday, the board passed a revised strategic plan that says that by 2018, it wants 90 percent of Asian students, 88 percent of white students, 81 percent of Hispanics and 74 percent of black students to be reading at or above grade level. For math, the goals are 92 percent of Asian kids to be proficient, whites at 86 percent, Hispanics at 80 percent and blacks at 74 percent. It also measures by other groupings, such as poverty and disabilities, reported the Palm Beach Post.

Wow, great idea idiots. Let's tell some kids that we have lower expectations of them.

Florida - doing everything for the lulz
I think I smell 4chan in this.
Might have to read the details to see if pedobear is mentioned.

92% for Asian math? Are they hoping the they get dumber?

We have been doing that for decades, if not longer.

Now it is in print.

Oh geez

Shit. Just be good at football and you don't have to worry about grades or bang your teachers.

Can't even bang your teachers anymore without all kinds of bullshit happening

:lol:

Kids dont have to worry about getting in trouble. They're innocent and can do no wrong.

Fuck, wish that was true for me when I was a kid. I couldn't do a god damn thing right. Hell, 20 years ago, if you got molested by a teacher you were probably blamed.

This is a dumb non-issue. The groups of students are already performing at vastly different levels. If they take the same steps for each group to increase performance across the board, they're still going to end up performing at different levels, and the goals seem to reflect that. Sure, you can argue the end goal should be the same for all groups of students, but you have to take intermediate steps to get there somehow.

People are just looking for excuses to get butthurt these days.

Be careful... you're outing the secrets of the mainstream media there. :wink:

So you think it's ok for wind of this to get out to kids, effectively telling them that if they're not Asian, they're inferior, and thus we don't expect much from them.

Is it so difficult to keep shit like this secret?

Being asian doesnt auto garantee good grades. Its their parents being hardcore on their asses over grades.

This, and they are achievement oriented. My school has a 24hr engineering library. 1am weekdays its packed with Asian students. At the same time the bard are packed but with few Asians.

Why do you think they're so good at WoW and StarCraft.

Pasty white kids are good at those games. I've never seen an Asian at my school play any of those games.

So this is the correct thread for this?

No, the ones who are playing it are still overseas.
Hence the old WoW term "CGF" (Chinese gold farmer)

If they aren't going to come over here and engineer something, then they need to quit fucking off playing dumb video games and build my 32gb black Iphone 5.

If you're a public school district, maybe it is hard to keep shit like this a secret. And no, I don't think it's okay for this to be positioned like this to kids. But that's not the school district's fault, either. It's the media and public who take shit out of context, and don't bother to think critically about anything.
