The Black Male Educator

I think black male educator can have a more detrimental impact on school in certain
demographic.   I personally feel that many school, in abundance  the black male
are employed as custodians, food service, and transportation workers. I understand
that black male are educators, not as a Physical Education teacher or a school coach.
According to Nation Center for Education Statistics, is nearly 82% in Public Schools
teachers in 2011-12 were white. 

The black male first enter the classroom was, one, two, or three that are on staff,
predominantly black school and districts.  Decision are made within a school, are largely
depends on, if they will fit, or how well; at the school.  The black male are largely
underrepresented in our nation's classrooms.

I think parents should know the importance of being involved in their children education
when they are in middle and high school.  Attend parents-teacher conferences or even
volunteering, parents must communicate the importance of education at this age .

I find that some teachers trump over teens to a certain aspects when it come to school
engagements.

  1. I know what you mean now that u r saying that. But since I go to school in this country I noticed that there are more women than men as educators in general, especially in elementary or high school. It's not just a race thing, it more a sex thing. It's like nursing. There are way more women nurses compared to men nurses. I think men are not willing to take care of people as women are. It's a nature.

  2. I agree to what both of Aleatha and Beverly wrote because it is true. There is a shortage in both fields and we need more to step up to the plate.
