I guess it really just depends on the communities that students come from. I think it is also due to faculty involvement. Before I went there, the school I had attended was an accredited school, ranked among the top in the city. While attending, we had many different principles, teachers, and a police/student riot among other things. When I moved, they were on their way to being controlled by the government. Accredidation was taken away, along with trusted faculty. I think the students gave up in a sense....because they gave up on us. I believe that if the standards were kept intact, along with the faculty that was enforcing those standards, the school wouldn't be were it's at now. When I went,there were eight classes a day, now there are only six. There weren't remedial classes, now there are. Everyone isn't even learning at the same level anymore. It's ok for one group of students to get a better education then the other. If the Black Educational School System can provide more then what was presented here, I'm with that. How can I be down to do it the right way?
