I don’t know, am I a big softy? I find this incredibly moving. I think these children, these young women, are not only remarkable, but they are also ordinary examples of what human beings are capable of when they are raised in dignity and promise.

New Orleans has it problems However the abundance of HBCUS and historical black private schools really makes new orleans a meca fir boack excellence But like girls gone wild to katrina nobody wants to focus on the sheer Majesty of New Orleans and the New Orleans people

Sister Henriette DeLille is also the first person of color from the United States to be nominated to be cannonized by the Catholic church. She founded the nuns' order, Sisters of the Holy Family. She was also an advocate for enslaved people. She was a remarkable woman.

It’s unfortunate educators/policymakers are not attempting to replicate this institution’s model in urban areas around the Nation.

@Ukie1MTMP 19 күн бұрын

Seems nobody wants to focus on the traditional educational philosophies, strategies and curricula that result in outcomes like these two remarkable students. Even this rare 60 Minutes piece doesn't want to touch it. Exactly how hard have the NEA, the AFT and all the education programs in colleges/universities (elite and otherwise) been working to collect and analyze the data and thereby REPLICATE what these highly successful schools are doing? Because I'm very interested in this issue, and I am just not seeing it. Their abject, ongoing failure to do so should be considered CRIMINAL. How many generations of poor students have been failed by these bureaucrats? Systemic racism...INDEED!

@ScoobySnacksYum 18 күн бұрын

Good Lord. You can't see the forest from the trees. Because this school is successful doesn't mean that systemic racism doesn't exist or affect education offerings. Hello, we live in a country now where it is illegal in many red states to teach factual American history because white supremacist legislation.

Fantastic report. CBS almost tried to make it about race, (as media usually does). These young ladies achieve their scholastic goals because the School sets STANDARDS, the teachers and administration believe in those standards. The Academy probably gets rid of students who choose not to follow the standards. Most Importantly these young ladies have parents who prioritize education. It is not magic or a fluke. It is a recipe for success no matter what race, class or gender the students are.

@ScoobySnacksYum 18 күн бұрын

Puh-leeze. CBS did no such thing. It reported on the achievement of two students and provided context to understand the history of the school. It's amazingly intellectually dishonest to think that speaking the truth that St Mary's was founded by an African American woman who defied the law to provide education to Black girls should not be mentioned.
