Luckily, my firm started collecting data on teacher aptitude some time ago, and basically you can separate all advanced math teachers easily into two categories:
Okay with blacks in their classroom. Blacks and whites both end up succeeding at equal rates.
Not okay with blacks in their classroom. Whites end up succeeding, blacks end up failing.
There are a number of research groups tracking teachers and student test scores. If such results had been released anywhere, wouldn’t they be front page national news? And this seems like something that, e.g. the Gates Foundation would want known: if true, it’s a magic bullet.
Why haven’t academics and foundations studying teacher quality and value-added metrics reported such results?
A certain principle...remember that as principle of a school
Thank you. I know it’s not very profound, but since someone did spell it wrong, and another felt the need to correct them, I thought I’d throw it out there.

The word is “principal.”
The Principal is your pal.
Separate is a rat.
Ugh. There are three types of lies in the world: lies, damn lies, and people falsely claiming that their incentives are aligned with yours.
