More than 10 schools in Baltimore, Maryland, failed to produce a single student who was proficient in math.
Out of 32 high schools that took the Maryland state math exam earlier this year, 13 Baltimore City Public Schools (BCPS), or roughly 40%, had no students who were proficient in the subject, according to Fox45 Project Baltimore.
“It’s not a funding issue,” said Jason Rodriguez, the deputy director of the non-profit People Empowered by the Struggle. “We’re getting plenty of funding. I don’t think money is the issue. I think accountability is the issue.”
