Kanye West Graduation Lyrics

Local black male students face long odds

“It’s been like that for years,” Clemons said. “And the school system is doing nothing to remedy this problem at all. They see it as an African-American problem, period. I see it as they don’t want to deal with African-American children. I don’t think the school system has a clue about the needs of the African-American student.” “African-American males have the lowest percentage of fathers at home,” he said. “When I grew up as a kid, older black men looked after younger black males. I don’t think as older black males we do that as they did when I was a kid. Maybe it is because there aren’t the same threats now of the Ku Klux Klan or police.” “When factories are part of a community, there are people with the attitude that those who go to college wasted their time and money, as a degree wasn’t necessary for high-paying jobs at the factory,” Payne said. “These students may think, ‘I saw my father, uncles, brothers make (a lot of) money and do it very well without having to go to school.’” Chow, the ACS superintendent, said he recognizes the need to examine black male graduation rates. Last year, the school missed Adequate Yearly Progress because students failed to show progress in one category — math for black male students in kindergarten through 12th grade. AYP is a measurement used by the U.S. Department of Education as part of the federal No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, which demands annual standardized test assessment of school performance across the country. “What does it cost per year to keep people at Pendleton in the prison or local jail?” he asked. “A lot. My thought is this — if we put money up front into the schools — preschool, kindergarten, first grade — in the long run we will recoup that money based on the fact that we are not putting as many of these kids in prison. They are also getting jobs and paying taxes.” About 36 percent of more than 28,000 Indiana Department of Correction inmates don’t have a high school diploma or General Educational Development certificate. A little less than 41 percent of nearly 10,500 black inmates don’t have either a high school degree or GED, according to the IDOC. The percentage of white inmates lacking such a degree is just over 30.
