&quot;In the 2023–2024 school year, 75 percent of low-income Black 11th graders and 66 percent of low-income Hispanic 11th graders failed to meet the state’s math standards, while 52 percent of low-income white 11th graders and 29 percent of Asian 11th graders in the same category fell short of the expected proficiency levels&quot;<p>Seems like that&#x27;s pretty easy to fix.

Do whatever we had in the early 90&#x27;s before NCLBA. I got a perfect 800 on the SAT-I math section without studying or any prep or coaching thanks somewhat to AP Calculus BC (5 on that test also, also without studying). (Anecdotal sample size of 1, sure.)
