Question

my state did meet ayp this is sad. what is going on are the schools not doing enough to help the students. why aren't parents more active in the child's lives . why dont people care these children are our future.

Answer 1

Many schools fail to meet AYP due to lack of funding. For example, in , Ohio, the supreme court has declared the school funding system unconstitutional four times. It unfairly underfunds innercity schools. They simply don't have the resources to improve. Other problems include public funds being diverted to Charter schools, which are very rarely successful.

As to why some parents don't care, the reason is probably that their parents didn't care about their schooling.
