The Michigan Education Plan: Poverty, Privatize & Profit

Michigan Governor Rick Snyder wants to close Detroit schools due to poor performance.

Detroit school closure plan draws objections

Detroit educators and lawmakers said Monday they want the state to toss out any plan to close failing Detroit public schools and work with them to create a better solution.

In January, the state identified Michigan public schools that have ranked in the bottom 5 percent for 2014, 2015 and 2016. As many as 24 of 119 Detroit schools could be shuttered as soon as this summer, with another 25 in 2018 if they remain among the state’s lowest performers another year.

Under the Snyder administration and the leadership of "The Elected Ones", test scores across the state precipitously decline.

Michigan test score gains worst in nation

A new analysis of results of a national educational test shows Michigan students have continually made the least improvement nationally of scores since 2003.

The study, by University of Michigan professor Brian A. Jacob, of scores of the National Assessment of Education Progress (NAEP), also found that Michigan students were at the bottom of the list when it comes to proficiency growth in the four measures of the exam.

That analysis comes less than six months after the release of the Michigan’s Talent Crisis report by Education Trust-Midwest that found Michigan’s students are falling far behind their peers across the nation. The ETM report found that Michigan is in the bottom 10 states for key subjects and grades, including early literacy.

Under the Snyder administration and the leadership of "The Elected Ones", child poverty rates continue to perspicuously climb.

Child poverty increases in 80 of 83 Michigan counties, hurts child well-being

Much of the data in this report is incomplete, but, on a side note, I consider anything published through the Michigan Children's Trust Fund, a secret propaganda operation arm of the privatization proponents.

Under the Snyder administration and the leadership of "The Elected Ones", quality of life for children in Michigan is perspicaciously reported, yet continuously ignored.

It is quite difficult to learn and succeed in school when "The Elected Ones" refuse to admit in public that domestic policies are created and perpetuated these conditions of poverty.

Snyder proposes cut for private, homeschooled students

Snyder's proposal is not going to please Michigan's Best Christian, Betsy DeVos and her plans to profit from her position at the U.S. Department of Education.

Keep them poor.  Make them sick.  Then privatize layers of services to bill Medicaid, in the name of the tax exempt God.

I guess that is what is called "reaching one's fullest potential".

The "P's" have it:  Poverty, Privatize & Profit.
