Remember - It´s all about the children!!!!!

Is this what we have come too? Is he assuming all white kids are smart and kids of color stupid? If you let white kids in they take up the spaces they wanted to reserve for the dumb black kids. Affirmative action for the stupid. Pathetic.

There needs to be a huge lawsuit against the school and especially against those responsible for this racist decision, they should never work in education again.

What the heck does anyone expect? BO has been dividing our country since he entered the President1al fray.
When the country is govern with THIS type of attitude it flows down to every single region.

We are in BIG trouble folks. Our Rights are being stomped on and we are letting it happen.

´Elementary School bans white kids from tutoring?´

Well then, withdrawl all ´white paid´ tax funds.

FYI: Whites don´t exacty have the market cornered on racisim.

According to their website, the principal reversed herself on the policy. Regardless, a white principal who did the same would still be sued out of the profession.

Discrimination?

This is a logical result of the No Child Left Behind Act which divides student populations into groups by sex, ethnic origin and disability for analysis of testing. When a school is deemed a failure because the minority males are testing poorly, the school is expected to establish programs to remediate them.

We all knew this would happen.

I´m not surprised this happened in Colorado. Colorado´s electoral votes went to Obama. It used to be a conservative state, now the entire state looks like Boulder.

What other things are they doing to discriminate against the white students?

...Thank heavens you can smoke pot recreationally.

Misleading headline. Should be "bans white kids from being tutored". Could easily be read as "white kids not allowed to tutor". Perhaps headline writer should be tutored.

Any comment from the ACLU......didn´t think so. Elections have consequences and this is America under obama.

So, does this mean the school thinks "colored" children are less intelligent than white children?

I had posted, yesterday, about a PBS conference held about 20 years ago. The conference was about Sesame Street and its effectiveness in getting little chillun ready for kindergarten. The results of studies showed that chillun of all races were better prepared for kindegarten, after watching sesame street.
And the conference participants actually discussed strategies which would stop white chillun from watching the show, so that minority chillun could gain on whites.
After seeing the silliness of that, the conference gave up on it as unworkable.
This colorado case is no different.

"... A spokeswoman for the school district told KJCT that Pearson’s letter was a mistake..."

It sure was a mistake but it was also exactly what the principal meant. Is he black? Has anyone else noticed the overt racism started since obama took office? Obama was supposed to heal racist divides and the opposite has happened.

Until whites are as dumb as blacks, this will continue

Well said, 18.

That will take you to the front page of the school´s website where you can read the letter from the principal. The money quote about the tutor program is from the first paragraph "The PASS committee is focused on partnering with the principal to close the racial achievement gap."

Now how can you expect to close the racial achievement gap if you let whites keep learning? s/o

Simple solution. White parents just transfer their children to another school, maybe another district. That outcome would hit the school where it really hurts ---- in the pocketbook.

Thank you for the Link, #20, I never would have guessed the principal who sent out the discriminating, racist, letter is black. s/

Yet another example of a government employee who should be fired. . . but almost certainly won´t.

Fine then - let the children of color wallow in their ignorance, poor grammar, dismal job futures, etc.

The problem is that if the idea is to close the racial educational achievement gap, then excluding white kids from tutoring programs would be a no-brainer. After all, to get the numbers to come out better, more ignorant white kids need to stay that way, while some ignorant black kids are elevated into a brighter category. What good is a tutoring program if it will help kids of all races and will have a racially proportionate impact . . . that is, if the goal is to close the racial achievement gap? Seems to me the principle is guilty of temporarily exercising logic, probably dangerously close to a firing offense.

Does this mean the dumb will be teaching the dumber?

It´s all about punishing the white man. Has been from the beginning.

André? An African Frenchman principal?

That begs another question? Do the blacks in France call themselves African Frenchmen? What about in Mexico? Are they African Mexicans? Anyone heard of an African Iranian?

It sounds like the principal needs a little after school tutoring.

So they´ve reversed a policy that never should have been put in place in the first place. End result? When the white kids show up for tutoring they´ll be ignored and all the help will go to minority students. Same effect.

did you know that some colleges in Colorado allow the students of parents who are illegal to pay lower tuition then instate students....

No racism here. Andre is, well, not white or Hispanic or Asian or Arab or anything other than sub-Saharan African. Note nothing about that can be found in any news outlet.

As much as I hate these big settlement law suits ; If ever there was a time for one - here it is.

Democrat governor, democrat mayors.

Keeping the class and race warfare alive.

Celebrate diversity!
It is Black month and they ARE the most talented africans in the world.

LBJ´s War on Poverty was really a war against the Whites...this trillions of dollars experiment that continues today was meant to GIVE the blacks a ´helping push´ towards so called equality. Dumb down the subjects, lower the test scores, allow more blacks into programs they didn´t qualify for to ´make it more fair´ at the expense of the qualified student of whatever color who was denied entry because there was no more room...give away housing money, grocery money, paying for electric, water, gas bills, send welfare checks, pay for medical, subsidize their not working with ´unemployment´ checks. The list of benefits that the left wants to be classified as entitlements and ´constitutional´ rights are the cry of the Democrats and black caucus politicians. As our black president says...´to make it more fair´...make the ´rich´, which means those that work, give to the won´t work class...and the beat goes on... This too shall pass.
