Harvard-trained mathematician offers Baltimore students help, no reply from school leaders

A Harvard University trained mathematician is offering to help Baltimore City Schools improve math scores.
Just seven percent of Baltimore City third through eighth graders, last year, tested proficient in math.
Dr. Jonathan Farley says he reached out City Schools offering his help, but City Schools has not even replied to his emails.
In the 1990s, Dr. Farley earned a doctorate in mathematics from the University of Oxford and graduated with honors in mathematics from Harvard University. He’s taught mathematics at Vanderbilt and MIT along with high schools in New York, California and Massachusetts. Now, he’s a professor at Morgan State University, and he wants to help Baltimore.

We put people in special ed instead of general classrooms because of necessity, why is it wrong to do the same here? They're not going to learn anyway and now they drag the rest of the class down.

    He may have a great strategy, to help students and I believe he does, but he is going about it the wrong way. He is an educated professional. Does he not know how to go through the necessary steps? He has done it before. Every state is different. Why contact the 4 individual schools directly and offer his services? 6 points: #1 - In most states, individual (public schools) do NOT have the autonomy to make such decisions. Why didn’t he contact the school board, school district or the State Board of Education? These are the organizations who make decisions at that level. #2- In most states, school districts can NOT legally just “get rid of the disrupters”. And send them where? Even though they are disruptive students, they are entitled and have the right to be in the public schools and taught the same things as everyone else. If districts legally could just “get rid of them”, they would have done so, as districts and especially teachers have been asking (damn near begging) for this for YEARS. These students can NOT be discriminated against. #3 - As the district alluded to, why wouldn’t he (like everyone else does) come in through proper channels as a district consultant, set up a model program and then teach/instruct the math teachers on his method? #4 - After all, State Boards of Education and school districts all across the country get all the time, hundreds of people with a proposal to introduce a new method, strategy, technique, concept, idea, and even an old strategy now new again. They do allow in, this person who can prove to them and or convince them of the success of their program. They will then give this person a school(s) to pilot their program/strategy, whatever. If it is successful, they then mandate the districts who then mandate and require teachers to be trained in this new way, then mandate the teachers to use it. #5 - The District, (NOT the 4 individual schools he contacted by email) said it felt he was being self serving (basically wanting to showcase himself). I can see it and agree with them based on his interview, because if he really wanted to help these students, “Why not go through the proper channels like everyone does?” “Why not pilot the program/strategy and upon success, train the teachers (who in turn can reach far more students)?” “Why, when rejected, did he go to the media and trash talk these individual schools and it’s educators who had no power to make that decision?” And obviously, the individual schools were interested because they did take his (email offer) to the district, in that it WAS the DISTRICT that responded to his offer. #6 - And If he really wants to help these students and not just showcase himself, he can for starters, try again, by contacting the district in the way it is done, through legal and proper channels. He can also go into a community center and open his program, which people do all the time when the districts do not adopt their program. He could also set up a private workshop/ institute to train teachers in his method, that teachers can attend on their own. Teachers attend and pay for these kinds of workshops/institutes All the time. There is so much else he can do if he really believed in his program/ strategy and really wanted to help those students. I hope he does that.

Once they agree to work together, they can Then apply to the district as a united front to get his program into play. It's interesting that this list appeals to the idea that the bureaucracy is there to help, when it's been clear for a very long time that none of the people involved in the educational system there (and in many other districts around The Country) are not at all interested in improving anything. For Two Reasons: 1) A poorly educated population is extremely easy to control, and 2) To paraphrase Chris Rock, "The money's not in the cure. The money's in the medicine... it's in the comeback." The educational system has become less about student achievement and scholarly pursuit. It's about the headcount for the Federal dollars, and funneling as much of that money into a Hydra of programs means to suck in more money that's Not going to making schools better.

    3:28 These strategies are ALREADY being used and are failing. The problem is that it is not politically correct to remove students due to the concept of "restorative justice." However, desperate times call for desperate measures. Remove the 3% of disruptive students and place them inside of classrooms within the school to learn together, like a one room school-house. Place 3 certified teachers (academic, special education and behavior support) and 2 paraprofessionals (special education and behavior support) in each classroom to handle the academic and discipline problems. Class sizes in this setting should not exceed 20 students resulting in an educator to student ratio of 1 to 4. Disruptive students must remain in that alternative class for at least a semester prior to a review meeting to determine their reintegration into the regular class setting.

What's worse a lack of care for their students. BCPS is scared of competency and prefer to submit to the press a model of gross incompetence. Moreover, he dares doing this miracle through funds that they can't access, has academic credentials, not part of the click, obviously bright, he's a Morgan professor too boot, he's a threat to BCPS North Avenue. Enough said; they need to boot out Dr. Sonja Brookins Santelises, she is incompetent.

    @@bepisdog According to Fox WBFF "Baltimore City Schools will be spending about $21,000 per student this year, thanks to a massive education funding increase. Maryland lawmakers passed the bill, known as Kirwan, two years ago. Now that funding is kicking in, the question is whether more taxpayer money will result in better student outcomes." That's a ridiculously high amount per student. Give me 5 students and I can teach them in my home for $100,000. That is 180 school days, 7 hours per day.

    Two thirds of his plan I agree with. A school system can't sign on to, what ultimately equates to, the giving up and not caring of students who would be deemed a distraction. Even the term of being a distraction is problematic. All students deserve the right to an education. Telling a kid (or their parent) well this kids bothers me or my classroom to much so we are getting rid of them, isnt something parents or a school system can get on board with. We already have the gal program and talented and gifted that will help with competition. But, you have to be careful with that type of program if a kid can't handle a program like that you send the message to them and their family that they are not worth an education. in theory it is a good system but needs more nuance. I believe that there are teachers that dont care but this plan is a form of uncare that is just as dangerous. it has to be tempered in order to be successful.

    While I believe the students and school could 100% benefit from his program, the fact that he says at 4:27 that he "loves math more than people" isn't really good to say when you're desiring to engage in doing business. No wonder why they said no and believe it's self-serving - he has no soft skills and is angry about getting rejected. Weird. With that being said, I do hope both sides can come to an agreement in the near future, or at least, the students show measurable improvement, as that's the main goal.
