Above the fray.
Great, Newark getting press for POSITIVE stories.

only negative is that....within a year he's going to get better offer somewhere else...and the momentum will stop. Principal of Shabazz was making positive changes there a few years back, school improved test scores ,attendance rates, graduation rates
Then he got offered the bag, left....and nobody picked up the torch.

Again, Great look for Newark, great look for West Side.....my relatives and friends who went there are all rallying behind this man and their school...just hope the changes are permanent.

Anybody on the coli from that part of Newark, we used to play ball on that slanted ass court behind St. Rocco's when we were kids.

Don’t excuse that shyt.
Plenty of warehouse gigs or something they can do instead of bang


im not condoning but LOL.

you know how many hours & days I wasted looking for jobs, a lot of them being gigs that I was over-qualified for? only to come away with nothing.

if I was broke and/or in the slums, i'd say "f*ck it" and hit the trenches too.

this whole "do better" talk is bullchit.​

I was in a catholic jr high school that did the same. It was until 8-9 at night. Just balling and listening to music.

Very great initiative cor the kids.

But sucks it has to resort to teachers being parents and protectors.

yea.

when I was that age, we had PAL(Police Athletic League) in our school's auditorium/cafeteria.

and it was mostly the public school homies that showed up. things like these make a world of difference. I think they still have it too.

what are you talking about specifically?

this is why I don't deal with you arm-chair revolutionists, who sit far away on the sidelines and make generic remarks.

Learned this the hard way - that's how it is. Which is why I don't really say shyt and lurk these days. But I already repped you for the thread when you first posted up the other day. Appreciate these types of topics. (all that nyc, la, south regional differences, thread f-ery aside). This is real shyt. I did read through this and good post.
:salute:
