A shocking discovery out of a Baltimore City high school, where Project Baltimore has found hundreds of students are failing. It’s a school where a student who passed three classes in four years, ranks near the top half of his class with a 0.13 grade point average.

Tiffany France thought her son would receive his diploma this coming June. But after four years of high school, France just learned, her 17-year-old must start over. He’s been moved back to ninth grade.

“He's stressed and I am too. I told him I'm probably going to start crying. I don't know what to do for him,” France told Project Baltimore. “Why would he do three more years in school? He didn't fail, the school failed him. The school failed at their job. They failed. They failed, that's the problem here. They failed. They failed. He didn't deserve that.”

As we dig deeper into her son’s records, we can see in his first three years at Augusta Fells, he failed 22 classes and was late or absent 272 days.

baltimore wut is u doing?

[BigDeeps01]

They just don't learn in the traditional way alright???

[CanuckGame]

This is Donald Trumps fault.

[DrugsToGetBig]

wow, who would have thought..if you don't show up..you dont pass


yeah the school failed your son lady

[LinuxJon]

They failed him. He should graduate. Because high school isn't about learning anything or even attending class- it's about getting a certificate, right mom?

[amikaelmorris]

"He didn't fail, the school failed him. The school failed at their job. They failed. They failed, that's the problem here. They failed. They failed. He didn't deserve that.”"

YOU failed him, lady. let your child be absent damn near half of his high school education and you want to blame the school? fuk off. that chit makes me mad as hell.

It's clearly the schools fault. Why hold him accountable for his own actions

How are you so indifferent and dense you don't realize that your son has been phucking off for YEARS.

I'm not fully sure how he has that class rank.

Is half the school actually doing worse, or do they adjust class rank for demographics like lots of blue cities now?

[gmenfan40]

Definitely Trumps fault for all the systematic racism this country suffers from, not that the kid is a retard.

When I was in NYC, they used to try their hardest to place the rejects into special education. So they wouldn't lower the graduation and gpa averages of the school. Apparently if someone was in special education, their grades wouldn't be counted against the school.

[aal04]

Maybe if the textbooks didnt teach racist stuff like maths and science.

yes.

half the school is doing worse.

that is why im fking dedd

was this a sham school?

who was running this thing?

In his four years at Augusta Fells, France’s son earned a GPA of 0.13. He only passed three classes, but his transcripts show his class rank is 62 out of 120. This means, nearly half his classmates, 58 of them, have a 0.13 grade point average or lower.

He's probably not retarded. This is learned behavior.

-mom doesn't blame you for grades
-school continues to advance you despite never even attending
-graduate anyway
-get into a college bc race
-get grants bc race
-student loans promised to be forgiven at some point
-graduate college bc demographics weighting
-get a job bc now have a degree
-job can't fire you for fear of lawsuit
-if they do fire you, endless unemployment

who is the principal of Augusta fells Savage Institue of Visual Arts?

Kamala Carnes

who was principal of Joseph C Briscoe Academy

“Did you do any extra work?” asked Project Baltimore Lead Investigator Chris Papst.

“Kind of. Sort of. But not really,” replied the former student.

The former student was given a certificate of completion. Certificates are listed in Maryland law as an alternative to the traditional diploma. They don’t count toward a school’s graduation rates, but students can take part in the ceremony. The former student says there were other students at Briscoe Academy who didn’t deserve to graduate or earn a certificate of completion.

“I can say some people who graduated shouldn’t have graduated,” said the former student.

Project Baltimore had obtained copies of final grades and transcripts for two of Briscoe’s 2019 graduates. One student was absent or late 110 days during his senior year. City School records show he failed science, a required class, with a 59. But his transcript says he got a D-.

hmmm. is she trying to help or hurt these students?

jaydawg can you chime in here?

[JIA]

I've heard rumors that certain public school teachers aren't permitted to give student F's during remote learning unless they can justify themselves in front of school administrators.

[8pieces]

lmao someone needs to beat the moms ass. how the fk is she going to blame the school when her son didn't even show up to school. she failed and doesn't like taking accountability. this is why abortions and castrations should be legally enforced by the government. imagine having people like this reproducing in society

[littlecaesars59]

2500 teachers left in 3 years

hmmm i wonder why

[wincel]

[littlecaesars59]

Baltimore needs more money and the people there deserve reparations.

Until we spend more money and give the people more money to undo the injustices of the past they will never be in a position where they could learn to read properly or understand basic math.

Its not their fault its the fault of white people all over the world we are not doing enough

rich black celebrities should go out and find gifted kids and pay for their education like how professor Xavier sought out mutants to raise.

like how Russian government goes around and finds kids for their olympic teams

u really think by throwing more money and resources actually changes anything?

i wonder how much aid S.Africa has received, when will it turn into Wakanda?

[coast2coastam]

So are they making everyone at that school start over? They might all be better off dropping out and studying for the GED.

[johnnyboi123]

wait the mom never checked the grades? the school never contacted her before? I was always afraid to show my dad my report card if i got even a single B.

[littlecaesars59]

Im sorry but no their job is to inspire the black youth and bring awareness to the troubles of minorities in a racist America today. Thats it, they are doing their job.

Its up to whites to level the playing field and stop being so racist so that these children can reach an equitable level. They have not been doing enough. More money, reparations now, also we need to blow up the system its not good for black people

Anyone who disagrees with me is a racist bigot and should be utterly destroyed

yeh mos def

[wincel]

This nation is beyond fuked if we do not fix our education system.

It all starts with the math. Everything starts with the math.
