Of course it does to them. This destroys their argument of integration and diversity being a good thing. Would you want to send your child to a school that was all white or all black and smarter or to a school with tons of different races of kids but not as smart? It should be common sense.
Our local school board decided to stop busing children clear across the county to be integrated into schools their parents didn't pay to live in, to save money. The radical "Independent" rag decided to publish the story with the title "Wake County goes to hell". Shock journalism?
So.. care to explain why this is so? Does being next to someone with different pigmentation as yours suddenly lower your IQ?
What do you propose, re-segregating schools? Make sure you talk about all of your black friends before you do that.
Black schools perform lower not because they have a darker skin tone; but because blacks often have problems with poverty, crime, and other factors. This goes WAY back to slavery days- obviously slaves didn't have much time to educate their children as whites have, and this was compounded later on with the idea of segregation & all black schools which were often much worse than all-white schools.
Somehow, looking at this through a lunatic Obama supporter's prism, this posting sounds racist.
No, looking at with with common sense seems racist!!!
Not reading the article and seeing that the presumption made by Professor Jaap Dronkers is highly debatable and that the findings may well be explained by other criteria, can lead the intelligent to form the following opinions of those who are attempting to use this transparent article as proof of the dangers of "Race Mixing"
People wanting to believe the claim that diversity is inherently dangerous will automatically dismiss the other factors listed as to the findings discovered by the Professor.
People are so unintelligent that they were unable to comprehend the article and just jumped on the "Nationalist" bandwagon for dummies!!
"..Not everybody agrees with Professor Dronkers’ conclusions. Dutch writer and educational expert Anja Vink says the professor places too much emphasis on culture and religion. She argues that socio-economical circumstances are widely accepted as determining factors for the educational achievement of children.
“We are focussing on colour, culture and religion, but what is being left out is that these children are from poor families. This could also apply to poor native children. If you attend a ‘white trash school’ you would get the same results. You will see this in the provinces of Friesland, Groningen en Limburg.”
"“I interpret lower student achievement at ethnically diverse schools to mean that a great deal of energy is spent on bridging the various cultural gaps between students. As a result, teachers are unable to focus on teaching. They keep hopping from one culture to the next. It uses up time and energy not spent on teaching.”
His INTERPRETATION, nothing more!!
Stop pushing this easily debunked theory of Racial superiority on this board, take it back to like minded "people" at the other web sites !!
Apparently according to your posts, you not only have problems with minorities but also with anything that establishes Law, order, and the public good.
It's really not that surprising. Here are some of your quotes.
"..I seriously doubt an employer would say that. I never said they should not hire them because of their race but because of affirmative action (racism against white) lesser skilled and less intellegient people are hired simply because the color of their skin.People should be left alone to do what they want. Personally I feel safer and like I have something in common with my white doctor and up until 50 years ago it was the same thing then. Blacks went to their black doctor whites went to theirs.."
"..It's more like brainwashing kids and teens into believing the liberal multicult garbage they call education.."
"..I can guarantee you I am not the only one that wants to cut the Department of Education and the IRS.."

Maybe I'm not a lunatic, and this just IS racist. Consider that possibility.
How is it racist? Because it doesn't fit into you distorted view of how the world should be. It can't be racist pal its a study they studied the kids and these were the results its something you can't make one way or the other it just is.

Might want to tell them to stop using affirmative action then because that's exactly what privilege based on skin color is.I got a surprise for ya pal. Liberalism that disgusting mental disease that has destroyed our nation is the only thing on its way out. Mark my words go ahead.
