Arithmetic has been declared 'racist', anyway; story on that is out there somewhere on Bing. I've already read it so don't need to waste my time again.
Time to tear down statues to mathematicians and their racist legacy in America.
How Does Race Affect a Student's Math Education?
They're blaming it on the "whiteness" of math teachers in this article. What flapdoodle.
"Lately, much of the discussion of race in math education has centered on the persistent underperformance of certain student groups, particularly black, Latino, and indigenous youth, and their disparate access to honors, gifted, and advanced mathematics courses. Yet a new paper disrupts those narratives by examining an unaddressed element of the equation—namely, the ways in which “whiteness” in math education reproduces racial advantages for white students and disadvantages historically marginalized students of color."
"Dan Battey, an associate math professor at the Rutgers University Graduate School of Education, said he set out to synthesize for math educators the research literature from sociology, history, and other disciplines on whiteness—defined in the paper as “the ideology that maintains white supremacy, valuing one racial group over others.” He also sought to expose how whiteness operates in classrooms and schools, leaving black, Latino, and indigenous students disenfranchised mathematically."
Just more proof these people shouldn't be in a classroom.

Agreed. They're trying to push some kind of affirmative action philosophy to gain what? Who can truthfully say they failed a class because the race of the teacher was threatening and unapproachable? Isn't doing well in class, foremost, about personal responsibility? Of course, if the teacher--regardless of race--is too uneducated to efficiently teach . . . well, that speaks to the heart of the thread.
Did it occur to you folks that it might actually be the test since at least 2 other states are having the same problem?
Yes, that 2+2 thing can be confusing and tricky.
Seems there is more to it than that, but that is probably your highest level of math so I will not bother with it anymore

It really is time for parents to consider all other education alternatives for their children. Government-schooling is failing. And it's only gonna get worse.
A quick warning on the article: The teachers attempt to blame the test, rather than take responsibility. Pretty much sums up how far Government-schooling has fallen.
Almost 2,400 North Carolina elementary school teachers have failed the math portion of their licensing exams, which puts their careers in jeopardy, since the state hired Pearson publishing company to give the exam in 2013, according to a report presented to the state Board of Education Wednesday.
Failure rates have spiked as schools around the state struggle to find teachers for the youngest children. Education officials are now echoing what frustrated teachers have been saying: The problem may lie with the exams rather than the educators.
The Board of Education, which last month granted beginning teachers an extra year to pass, plans to review the Pearson exams to see if the tests are actually measuring skills needed to teach elementary students effectively, or whether they’re gauging math that’s generally taught in higher grades.

You left out f. All of the above, the correct answer.

I doubt the issue is public schools. It's more of a 'North Carolina' issue.
No question that teachers in the North East Public schools would pass easily.
Perhaps less bible studies and more STEM in NC colleges would help.

Yeah Bible studies for children are so counterproductive...we wouldn’t dare want to teach morality and the like in public schools.
I’m certain you’ve posted your extreme discontent with educators spending all their time teaching wetback kids to speak English....can you link us to those posts of yours? You know, so you can maintain a little credibility and all.

REPUBLICAN government-schooling you mean!!!It really is time for parents to consider all other education alternatives for their children. Government-schooling is failing. And it's only gonna get worse.
Back in the day dems forebid reading. Little to nothing has changed.Jez - When I was in school I wish I could've challenged the test whenever I got a bad grade!
Actually, it is the large liberal utopian cities run by dems for decades that refuse to educate children.REPUBLICAN government-schooling you mean!!!It really is time for parents to consider all other education alternatives for their children. Government-schooling is failing. And it's only gonna get worse.
