- In this video I discuss the story of Salem Avenue Elementary school. This school has 100% of their students in poverty is in a town ravaged by opioids, yet due to the fact that they don't treat the students like victims the school is performing better than most schools in the state

He's giving those kids a chance. Governments don't want that though. They want dumb, compliant civilians that never question.
100%. Tax cattle
Taxable income housing.
They want everyone dumbed down, like communism. It's part of total control.
Not everything has to be a conspiracy. Government incompetence and special interest groups are enough of an explanation of the failures of our schools.

When people are told things are too difficult and that they cannot achieve something they might not even try.
That's what real discrimination looks like! The soft bigotry of low expectation. Amen.
Right. That’s why we HAVE to fight against it. They don’t want them to try, they want them to depend on “big daddy”.
I am glad to see someone else finally bringing that up.. that's what I am saying.

Like pronouncing Salem correctly.
Desiring the perks of victimhood without actually being a victim is something for losers.
also called democrats
If you’re a permanent victim, you’re a loser.
@@rollinOnCodeeh not all of just some of em
@@chekkibrekkiv1.245 name a Democrat that is not a total loser who seeks to push their victimhood Olympics
The virgin loser that fear of trying, vs the Chad that fought self doubt and took wise chances to gain his own success.
and then the teacher's union gets all the staff at that school fired for making them look bad and the school collapses
We've been throwing taxpayer money at education for decades, only to witness a decline in proficiency.
Administrative bloat is a huge part of the problem. However, it's very difficult for kids to succeed when their parents are literal crackheads or abusive creeps. It all starts at home, and the family unit has been more or less demolished in the US.
Look no further than the nutjob they put up there at the head of the department of education.
Yet another bureaucracy that is infested with those types.
@@aposematicayuWe've been throwing taxpayers money at welfare for decades and we've seen the decimation of the family
@@aposematicayusame problem applies to the homelessness issue. It's admin who get more than 70% of the money. It's a damm shame. It's crazy how this industry makes people think homelessness can't be solved without billions of more money.
@aposematicayu yes but when it comes to the black community this family destruction was intentional and deliberate.
" _The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I'm saying? We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against the war or black.
But by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we couldit disrupt those communities...
We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news.
Did we know we were lying about the drugs?
Of course we did_ "

Children are very impressionable. It's important to empower them and grind into them that their efforts can take them out of their current situation. Kids shouldn't be treated like a victim otherwise they'll always blame their failures on their "victim status".
This is a big part of why they were taught a 'sanitized' version of American history until relatively recently.
@@stevenschnepp576 the public school i went to didn't water down any part of history, but then again I was out of HS by 2001.
Kids also have an instinct to seek approval from adults. If adults are telling them the world is against them, it's not unreasonable to draw a connection to kids acting like the world is against them.
On an unrelated topic, telling kids that gender is an oppressive patriarchal myth has NOTHING to do with the skyrocketing rates of gender confusion among children. Right?
@@dandeflavis7004 So they taught you that every inhabited continent for all of history had slavery until Europeans went on a campaign to end it globally?
A friend worked in an inner city school system and she said American born kid's parents rarely showed up at events, rarely answered emails and rarely even showed for parent - teacher conferences. Foreign born student's parents showed up for everything and often had their kids translate for them. The parents knew the value of education. So yeah, I blame bureaucracy, but also parents for not demanding better.
The school systems surrounding that is less well funded, yet has much higher test scores. It's almost like money isn't the problem.
I've had a sister, my mom, and a couple friends that were teachers as well. What you are saying is true. A lot of the parents in these high poverty schools just don't care.
Money is literally not the problem. Except public schools probably have too much of it to know how to spend it properly.
You all totally wrong! It's absolutely money thats the problem. You ain't paying the teachers enough money to do a good job. And you ain't getting rid of no teachers neither cause they got a union and they know they rights.
If CEOs make 3 million a year but teachers just making 80K? They just goin say "toodaloo" to you kids education. LMFAO! Teaching is a service that costs money, right? And you get what you pay for, right? Peoples need to pony up and pay teachers their fair share of the sugar in this society.
I am utterly and completely shook Maryland allowed this school to not treat its students like victims being a woke state. Crazy what happens when you not only work hard but have a teacher that is actually passionate about teaching instead of yelling at kids for a check. I grew up poor as many others have but I was able to pass high-school with a decent GPA without putting in 100% in school
The desk jockeys found out in the sixites that failure pays! They use poor academic performance as an excuse to increase funding and hire more nonteaching staff. That is why they fight tooth and nail against any real solutions.
Don't worry.
They're making the evil Teachers' Unions look bad. Salem just made some VERY powerful enemies, the Maryland Democrat Establishment will destroy them now.
Watch.
My sophomore year of high school i got a 2.75 GPA by only going to weight lifting, and history everyday but then attending the other classes only once a week. I would have got a 4.0 if it wasn't for homework. When SATs came i scored in the 1370s range but school seemed so boring and useless.
After that my parents homeschooled me with an out of state accredited system and i graduated before my older brother.
DEFUND THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION!
It’s western Md so they are off the radar.
Not long ago they had a Republican governor. They have a recent history of electing Republican governors.
It's almost as if kids do better when you give them encouragement & confidence rather than promote perpetual victimhood.
Let's remember this whenever the Left suggests we blame "muh racism" or "muh poverty" for the terrible state of education in this nation. Hard work works.
I frequently point out that the best funded schools in the nation (on a per student basis, the only metric that matters) also have the most abysmal failure rates.
The inverse isn't always true, but we have unequivocally proven that throwing money at the problem of education is incapable of solving it.
Literally the Chinese kids study twice as long as anyone else
@@anotherone-xp9oxstudying isn't for everyone. I aced things in school, never studied.
Hard work is waycist tho.. 🤷🏻♂️
Hard work is racist.
It's nice to see this principal is not allowing the racism of low expectations. I'm going to pray for these kids proving the progressives wrong and succeed in life.
He was my principal when i was a kid and im 21 now. He is the funniest principal on the planet
What does being a progressive have to do with it? I am progressive, and I FULLY SUPPORT THIS SCHOOL.
@@ImissyoulouHe is talking about Woke that pushes victimhood.
@@Imissyoulou what do you think every school system that has removed AP classes and have very low unacceptable Math and English scores have in common? They are run by progressive management.
@@Imissyoulouthen you're not a progressive because that would mean you're against affirmative action, you racist bigot
Kids are extremely resilient and the world can be extremely tough and cruel. When you tell them they're fragile and words are violence you're just crushing their ability to face adversity.
This principal is an absolute world champion. He deserves a large raise and to be put in charge of more schools. Unfortunately, the reality of our broken school system is that he will likely not be promoted or recognized for this. In fact, I wouldn’t be shocked if I found out that he was punished in some way because he is showing up the Baltimore public school mafia.
At the very least, this story will be buried as if it were nuclear waste. It’s a good thing AJW is pushing it out.
Dude needs to be District board director!
@@brettloo7588 This used to be what happened before the 90s. lol
When I went to school, anyone too disruptive was removed. They would get special treatment in the special ed room. If they couldnt cut it there, they would take a shorter bus to the "River school" which was basically a place they could do woodworking and hands on stuff. Not everyone is wired to sit at a desk in a classroom all day. Remove them and let the others thrive.
We had the ALC (Alternative Learning Center or, as the kids called it, Asshole's Last Chance). Lots of teenage mothers and young entrepreneurs/drug dealers.
That "woodworker" now owns his own homebuilding business, and will hire YOU as an employee! 😂
@@arasb3258
A guy a bit younger than me was told by teachers he was useless and wouldn't ever have a job. He liked welding so he quit school and started a little welding business. He was too young to drive at first so his dad drove him out to jobs.
A few years later, he owned a decent ute (or truck as the Americans say), a nice trailer, and a fairly good flatbed truck. I believe he was also employing a few other guys. Oh and he bought a nice house. How's that for useless?
@@arasb3258 copeium
One thing to note. Washington County MD. is a heavily Republican county.
It’s not that they are just visiting the kids families it’s that they are building a sense of community
It's upsetting that people don't understand how much individual effort affects your circumstances. Sure there are circumstances where you're unlucky but instead of trying to make their lives better most people just complain and blame others.
love the positive stories Sean keep em coming because we can all use a little inspiration!
Finally, some good news from public schools.
A feel good Friday video. Those teachers are the real heroes
Tearing up through this whole video. So grateful for the kids getting the push and attention they need. So heartbroken for all those kids who are being failed by everyone in every way….
Salem av was my school (I'm 42 lol), and my sons (he's 19) and it really is a great school. Alot of those teacher's were very great with my son. I remember every year the teacher's wpuld come door to door before school started and introduced themselves. I so much appreciated it!! I have TONS of great examples personally how Salem Av does care truly! Thank you for covering this!!!❤
Lol it's always crazy when I see my own community in a TH-cam vid😆
My kindergarten teacher came to my birthday party and gave me a book. It made me feel special. In retrospect, I'm sure I wasn't special and she did that for all the kids. She was quite old at the time. I imagine she was probably just behaving the way she had been raised 1930s when communities were really communities and not just people living near each other.
Every level of MD government should take emergency action to dissolve the public service unions.
The difference between kids that do well in school and kids who do poorly are the parents. Has nothing to do with money.
I think genetics plays a larger role than what most people would be comfortable admitting. I think a mild application of eugenics could do the world alot of good, maybe via tax breaks or something
@@Justadonkey Woah You are NOT allowed to talk that way in this country. Behavior & intelligence has nothing to do with heredity. If you want to avoid getting canceled and blacklisted you better dial that opinion back in a hurry, bub. Better learn the correct opinions to have or else you never go succeed in America.
The care and dedication the principal and teachers have towards these students is so rare and it's wonderful to witness that these professionals exist. They're trying to make a difference in their students' lives.
My little neighbor went to kindergarten here and will go to 1st grade. He came home crying everyday from bullying, mainly on the bus. The school didn’t care. There are some major problems at this school.
Pity is not a gift. And when it's used against anyone who is capable, its an impediment to success.
The necessary thing to remember is that these teachers WANT to go out and meet these kids at their homes. They WANT to teach these kids. What we need is passionate teachers, and passionate teachers will deserve every dollar they earn (we should be paying these teachers substantially more). The only teachers who deserve low pay, are the ones who let kids fall off because it's easier than helping them learn.
This shit made me cry. I hope they become brilliant scholars and innovators
He reeecheeed these keeeeds.
Having expectations and standards used to be the norm. Now it is seen as a system imposed on communities and contextualized as a negative.
Hagerstown is basically a refuge for families escaping Baltimore. I'm a pro wrestler in the region and met a nice black woman who was truly happy with her decision and she's not the only one. It's a growing town with a wrestling culture. I loved performing for you crazy bastards.
I was born in Silver Spring, class of 95...
Damn.... I love Maryland! Bless those teachers!
So it is not the money it is the effort put forth by the district.
As a Marylander who is used the my state absolutely embarrassing and infuriating me; this is an uncommon breath of fresh air.
It is a sad state of affairs if only 45% can pass in our school system. I went to a public school in the 80s and 90s and i had some very good teachers. Not all were great but my math and science teachers were excellent and i became an engineer. We didnt have the most funding. Teachers need to focus on teaching and not all the other nonsense going on in schools. We knew nothing of our teachers personal lives and rarely their first name. I am proud of this principal and i hope they have continued success. I am honestly shocked that Baltimore is 3rd in the country for funding. There must be corruption somewhere a d this debunks the notion that under funding creates a school to prison pipeline. I have heard many times that the poorest schools are that way to create some pipeline to prison for financial benefit.
As someone who grew up in poverty and now lives comfortably, I will 100% attest to the importance of education. Stay in school!
As I’ve been saying since I stopped teaching, the Unions are the Number 1 problem in education, secondary is the Administration of the districts, and third are the teachers themselves.
Getting teachers and students on the same level and understanding each other too me is a good thing.
Those poor kids are in for a rude time when they get to high school in their area. Its sad and depressing.
I can see where this has a criminologist's point of view. Iltiercy drives crime.
This is what is meant by the community helping to raise children.
These teachers are giving lots of these kids more attention and respect than their own parents are...
OMG I WENT TO THAT SCHOOL. THE TEACHERS ARE AMAZING. Its the crime in the area thats a huge issue though. My little sister goes there still. Its crazy finding my old school on my youtube recommend.
I worked as an in-class tutor at the middle school Michael Brown went to in Ferguson, MO. The teacher I worked with had the best class in the fifth grade because she did this. They were also the best behaved because she knew the parents and had them on speed dial. (Threatening to call parents works to improve behavior. Imagine that)
I was today years old when I found out that Salem is short for Jerusalem! Thank you for that!
My elementary school principal would come to each hew students house and read them a bed time story (not creepy parents were there lol). He would wear these big Donald Duck slippers and a funny robe and would bring tons of books, and I think we could even keep the book. This was a public school in a rural part of the county. I actually credit that school and his leadership so much for my success. Tommy Hughes is the goat and deserves all the praise.
The Nuns in my high school (where many students were impoverished and came from crime infested neighborhoods) told us that our potential was in us to be unlocked, no matter what our circumstances were. The school had 100% college placement at a fraction the cost of public school.
Later in life, I taught at a high school overseas where there was no central heating, kids cleaned their own home rooms, took turns cleaning the bathrooms and groomed their own sports fields. Yet the average math scores were two grade levels above US counterparts.
It’s not a question of funding. It’s all about attitude.
I've never heard of a 100% poverty school in Houston. I don't think it's even possible in Houston because we don't have zoning so there never really is any place that is truly walled off from poverty, or from wealth.
You do excellent work keeping everyone informed!
Holy hell, Hagerstown getting a shoutout in a AJW video. Not surprised at the context, but hey!
A lot of people I know are so disheartened that cities like Hagerstown and Baltimore are leaving their communities and kids behind. This really is uplifting.
Feeling sorry for students and giving them free passes for everything, is giving them a ticket to destruction.
They receive more money from the state then almost any school district in the country 22K a year per student.
Salmon Massachusetts.
It's funny because the setbacks of poverty are the reason we have publicly funded school, to make quality education available to everyone
Thank you for posting this video. A couple of days ago I had a conversation with a woke friend whi said that if you're a minority in a poor neighborhood you can't have a good education.
Interesting facts about Baltimore:1) It has two 1000+ ft TV antennas in the Hamden area. 2) It's so close to DC it gets 2 Fox Stations Fox 5 and Fox 45 (well it gets all DC channels)
But I’ve been told by Democrats that schools just need more money! Surely going out and caring about the students can’t work!! These people are damn heroes.
If you dont want students to succeed, dont tell them they cant, tell them they dont have to.
I appreciate you covering this story. This school, the principal, the teachers and the students deserve to be acknowledged for what they're doing. And unfortunately, corporate media doesn't seem interested.
The reason the objective standards are being lowered is NOT because the teachers do not have confidence in student's ability to learn. They question their own ability to effectively teach.
Love it! What a great story. Hope other schools learn from this.
When everyone is in poverty... Then no one will be!
He refused to treat them like victims? That's toxic masculinity for you.
When I was in school most teachers came in one of three types. 85% were just getting a pay check with summers off, A hand full wanted this job to prove how Smart they are. And yes I had a few who really wanted to help.
I like it when you expose us to positive stories. Thanks!
The opposite of no child left behind mentality.
It's understandable that a school in a smaller city will have problems that are less complex and more consistently solvable. What is truly unacceptable in Baltimore are the excuses that are made for not getting ANY traction and the continued employment of managers who have the sole responsibility of creating a workable learning environment. If you can't do it, you need to stop getting paid for trying, or more likely, for pretending to try.
I've got a STRONG suspicion that there aren't very many if any at "LGBT" kids at this school, since you know, they're actually teaching them things that they need to learn.
Sean, you're a beast, bud. Love from P.A.
Totally agree!
It all starts with leadership.
Locally, hagerstown is jokingly called "little Baltimore"
Excellent! Thats what teachers should do, challenge and inspire through education. Just because you think you cant do something, or someone has told you that you cant reach your goals, doesnt mean you should wallow in mediocrity or slog through the hell that is severe poverty. Reach for it, fight for it, earn it.
@actualjusticewarrior - love this! just sent the teachers and admins lunch from Mission BBQ for next week because of your reporting. Edit: delivered today!!
I downloaded one of their school lessons, they have a teaching style similar to Khan academy. They make things easy to understand. That's the reason they're doing good, it's not because of a change in attitude.
Now imagine if we had school choice, this school would be filled with students hungry for education
Our schools connect with the parents and families, especially if those that don't speak English.
I love this story, Sean! Thank you for covering it. The principal made me think of my mom, who became a teacher in her 30s and later a principal. She was tough and feared nothing (she is retired but hasn’t changed). Even if they resented her the first time she caught them acting up, students of every class and race grew to love her because she really believed they could rise to a challenge. She led that high school out of its rep as the “bad” school to the state’s top 3.
Top notch episode. Great to hear about a principal actually caring about the kids.
This school proves sometimes darkness can show you the light
As a certified marylander, i can confirm that i have never in my life said salem like "sallum" that i can remember.
We should all pump the breaks when you see good like this...
The truth is, someone has to be at the bottom.
It's working because those teachers are treating the children with respect.
They're not treating them like kids, they're treating them like people.
Outstanding video!!!!
It's really crazy to realize that this principal comes across like a hero or amazing when all he has really done is show that he cares about his students and doesn't assume they are incapable of achieving success. Says a lot about our public school system.
Glad to see a maryland school actually do something for once, As someone from maryland I always found our education system to be quite corrupt for the most part and only care about the financial aspect.
I couldnt imagine living somewhere like this. Teachers have to personally go out and make sure kids go to school. When i was in grade school in the 90s/high school in the early 2000s you either went to school or they came after your parents. Luckily i have great parents. They ensured i got my ass up lol. It all amounts to the home life. Its so important
Wow! This is true leadership! He is, however, taking a major risk going against the victimhood narrative.
If learning was easy, we wouldn't need schools or teachers.

Brother, it's not the teachers "believing in them."
Went to school in Turkey. Had one pencil and one notebook. Wrote small on both sides of each precious page. Studied hard. More money is NOT the solution, unless you're a grifter.
All children can learn and do great!
If they are willing.
Our education system is failing because educators are lazy. I've seen first hand the abuse they let go with these kids and don't say anything....They're entirely complicit.
The unions need to be abolished period.
Used to support teacher's unions - until they became political orgs supporting themselves and the cause of the day.
@@windycityliz7711 it's just like the ADL and the SPLC...because they WERE good at one time, judges still look fondly upon them...
Money isnt the problem. How they manage the money is the problem.
I’m glad those kids are at a school that will guide them in the direction of success and not apathy. Hopefully seeing the state of the families around them they’ll get out of there and make something of themselves.
If you do what is difficult, your life will be easy. If you do what is easy, your life will be difficult.
I commented sir, appreciate the link to them and shouting out this idea. Fantastic idea would love to see more.
So this is what happens when teachers and schools put in an effort. Hard work netting results is a good lesson for kids to learn.
The fact that half of Marylands kids can't read or write proficiently for their grade is terrifying for the future of this whole Planet.
If that house is a poor house then I am living in extreme poverty
