martin and I saw a paper about the achievement gap .We read that most Asians and white students were a higher percentage of them had a chance of being successful in life.And a high percentage of blacks and Hispanics students to be unsuccessful in life. One thing thats not right is that Asians students know a lot of math and other skills that American,Latinos,African American people. we Latinos have more chances of passing just like African American people.

Do You Think Some People Are Segragated ?
Hi this is Martin and Arison and we have a question to ask. Do you think some people are segregated ?
We saw a movie with our class and it is called Little Rock High School.This video showed us how this school is still segregated .One thing that they showed was black students on one side of a class room and white student's on the other side. after42 year of segregation now in the school they the first president African American.
This had us wondering why can't teachers put a program for students to talk and meet each other ? There where two things that bothered us in this movie . The first reason was that most of the African American students are in lower classes and three or four black students in the higher classes. The second reason was that white students get to ride there own car's and only the only African American student who is the president of the school. The third reason was that they take buses because they are afraid to walk to there houses because they might get robed on the way home by people in there own neighborhood.
In this film the white student's live in wealthy neighborhoods and African American students live in unhealthy neighborhoods. Also most of the African American people are in horrible reading levels there levels of passing are low.
