Nearly two dozen Baltimore schools have zero students who test at grade level (or, are “proficient”) in math. This report comes from Project Baltimore, a group that has been on top of all things related to education in the city. There are other schools that also have zero students that are proficient in math, but were not included in the study. This is because one of the schools is essentially an extension of a youth prison and the others are in the same category. Parents, including Jovanni Patterson, are outraged and astonished at the findings of Project Baltimore. Maryland is not a poor state by any means. The new Governor, Wes Moore, says that education is at the top of his list of concerns. When reached out for comment by Project Baltimore, they did not get a response.
