Reblogged from Diane Ravitch's blog:
Florida, in its wisdom or lack thereof, has adopted different standards for different racial groups.
Quite frankly, this is abhorrent.
Every child is a child, period.
We should look at each one as an individual, not as a racial representative.
This is NCLB thinking squared, cubed, and absurdist.
It is racist, it is insulting. It should stop. Now.
