why are city schools poor?

Question

black people

Answer 1

Because they are in poor areas where the population earns below the average income = less tax $$ for the school.

Answer 2

Lots of reasons. Tax base in cities are often pretty good because there are still a lot of businesses inside the cities but the school are ravaged by vandals and its hard to keep up that pace of buying desks and paint so they can be destroyed. Learning is not really about buildings and even books, its about families who want to have children educated and care at home about that. Schools in cities are warehouses for delinquents and good students are targets for thugs. No one has to huddle in neighborhoods, no one. You can move your family from the city and even to another city that is not blighted if you really are interseted in education. If you live there becaue you are addicted to the social services then you have made a choice that does not benefit your kids. No one can "give" an education to someone, and no amount of money can make someone smarter. If you want to learn you can. Some students in city's schools fight to get an education and THEN they get the hell away from their peers who are the cause of poor education and ugly buildings. Its not complicated, it just take the courage to go for it and stop waiting for someone to do it for you and then bitching when you don't get a good education.

Answer 3

This is a difficult question. Schools genuinely reflect the nature of their relative neighborhoods. Money from school is granted by the government and usually funded through local/state tax money. If the community you live in happens to be in rapid decline, the schools will likely also be in rapid decline. The population plays a vital role as well. Citizens and students should show concern, and seek to get investments into the school system. Nowadays as we see in the planning department of most towns and cities around the United States, cities are focusing on finding an urban and regional "town center" to enhance economic development. Our central government requires cities to keep a balanced budget which they do every-year through CAFRs and various expense reports and budgeting documents. This is usually the single biggest single goal of a city (financially which speaks for the city goals as a whole). Due to this, they focus on new and improved ways of generating needed revenue to keep their budget balanced. A lot of times cities in trouble of not keeping their budgets balanced need to cut line items out of their budget. Ususally it comes from city beautification and education. Of the two they will opt for education recieving a budget cut because beautification will "theoretically" improve economic conditions in the city, which again, leads to a balanced budget. Thats why...
