Does Race Really Matter?

How should the school handle the achievement gap between races?

I think that the problem needs to be addressed before high school. I see the gap starting in grade school. -Yoshimizu

There needs to be better role models for the Hispanic kids. Students need to be held accountable for their school’s performance and laziness need not be tolerated. I do not think that students and parents have been held accountable and the school cannot decrease this gap alone. There are too many factors that the school has no control over. -Perez

Parents and administrators need to realize that this issue is not exclusive just to Alhambra High. Instead of reacting and blaming, we all need to do more research and come to understand why these gaps occur. This way, we will be able to handle the situation prepared and informed. -Wilson
