Clarification Is
Needed
By
Roger Behra
Every
so often the print and radio media states the fact that America’s school are in
very poor, disorganized, and unproductive mode affairs. However, the medias are
quite guilty of not adequately clarifying and explaining the why story. They
fail to tell just that makes up the conglomerate of America’s four kinds of
schools systems. So their statements are only partially correct. The print and
radio media is more interested in telling people what teacher had with what
female student in the classroom after school hours, or what gang member was
shot on his way home from school, or what female teacher was giving alcohol to
some of her male students and then getting involved in sexual behavior. The
modern day media leaves a great deal to be desired.
The
media fails to explain that the American School System is made up four (4)
separate systems: Catholic schools; other religious schools; private schools;
public schools, and that only one of systems is in a very poor are productive
mode…
The
media needs to tell everyone that Catholic schools are head and shoulder above
the other three (3) systems. Parents have to pay to have their children rolled,
but parents are very satisfied with the end results. In regards to natal high
school graduation rates, Catholic schools graduate 99.4% of their pup and 84.9%
of them attend a four-year college. That is outstanding news.
The
other religious schools are not as successful as Catholic schools, but they are
adequate in comparison to the remaining two systems. Other religious schools
graduate 98.1% of their high school pupils and 61.3% of them attend a four-year
college. That is very acceptable.
The
other private schools are considerably below Catholic schools. They are on moderately productive
academically, and only 57.2% percent of their high schools graduates attend a
four-year college.
At
the very bottom of the list of school system is America’s Public School System.
At one time they were very good. They became poorly organized, poorly
productive, and poorly kept up when the U. S. Government got into the act with
government money. With the money came mandates, changes in administration
procedures changes in what could or could not be taught, and changes in how
schools should be organized. To sum it up, government money help became a great
public disaster.
Only
35% percent of high school students is public schools actually graduate only
39.5% of that 35% percent attend a four-year college. There are a few de public
schools scattered throughout America, but they are few and far between.
Most
American public school are dens of iniquity, full of horrendous discipline
problems, poor academic results, and meeting places for unpleasant and unacceptable
moral behavior. The once very acceptable American Public Schools can now
correctly called great American Public Disgraces.
