[QUOTE="arktouros:1052622"][QUOTE="TheRidersofDoom:1052604"]Last time I checked the feds had no power over schools, that was a state's right.[/QUOTE] Schools don't fund themselves. Excellent article on the topic - http://www.eastbayexpress.com/eastbay/rich-black-flunking/Content?oid=1070459 [UC Berkeley Anthropology Professor]Ogbu concluded that the average black student in Shaker Heights put little effort into schoolwork and was part of a peer culture that looked down on academic success as "acting white." Although he noted that other factors also play a role, and doesn't deny that there may be antiblack sentiment in the district, he concluded that discrimination alone could not explain the gap. "The black parents feel it is their role to move to Shaker Heights, pay the higher taxes so their kids could graduate from Shaker, and that's where their role stops," Ogbu says during an interview at his home in the Oakland hills. "They believe the school system should take care of the rest. They didn't supervise their children that much. They didn't make sure their children did their homework. That's not how other ethnic groups think."[/QUOTE]
