This paper describes basic facts regarding the black-white test score gap over the first four years of school. Black children enter school substantially behind their white counterparts in reading and math, but including a small number of covariates erases the gap. Over the first four years of school, however, blacks lose substantial ground relative to other races; averaging .10 standard deviations per school year. By the end of third grade there is a large Black-White test score gap that cannot be explained by observable characteristics. Blacks are falling behind in virtually all categories of skills tested, except the most basic. None of the explanations we examine, including systematic differences in school quality across races, convincingly explain the divergent academic trajectory of Black students.
Here's where I got the Info from:

Sorry, hadn't seen a proper response from PJC yet so i thought I would pipe up in support of the Christian membership. Yep 8;) I'm joking. However, you walk into any large organization and quote statistics like this and at the least you will be sent to sensitivity conditioning and possibly even fired for rascism.
The truth is no excuse. We know that from dealing with the muzzies.

In Toronto (where I'm from), they are creating a separate school system for black students. The blacks feel that they would learn better in a segregated environment. If this helps them learn, then I'm all for it, except I resent the fact that my tax dollars go to this program, which only they benefit from.
