Failing at what?Well - he's failing and that brings up the question is he trying to help these kids or is this just another scam.
Who is being scammed?BS - this was another scam.
Seems like he is trying to do good with his money. He is addressing kids who need help the most. I do not know why rightys hate every good act.
GATEWAY = FAKE NEWS
LOL, you using that common core math they taught you TDAK?
No -but i realize the press lies all the time to help negroz.
The discussion over this school shows the line between pragmatism and ideologues. A pragmatist can say they love what LeBron has done by donating here and support what the school is trying to do but have concerns over the results.
An ideologue says the good intentions are all that matter and anyone concerned with results either have bad intentions or worse.
Keeping kids in school without education them so that they can collect a HS diploma and flood universities with people who dont have the required skills because they were never educated is not a good intent.
It is insanity.
This school is set up to help the most disadvantaged of students. These kids aren’t going to Harvard. But they could be the type to go to community college or trade school where they learn skills and create a better life for themselves. That’s a worthy endeavor (although the school still needs to be held accountable that the kids are learning and progressing).
I’ve not sure what you’d recommend to do with the most challenging of students.
It was set up to capture students who were likely to not finish school, and keep them in school so that they would get their degrees. Education was not the goal, convincing them to do the time to get the credential was the goal....as the results prove.
Define 'waste'
