The Math & Science Exploratory School MS 447 in Brooklyn plans to change their name because of lowered admission standards as their students performed poorly on their math tests.

Student math scores at The Math & Science Exploratory School in Brooklyn have tanked 26% since 2018.

Bottom line: Where 95% of MS 447 seventh-graders scored a passing math grade on end-of-year tests in 2018, only 69% did last year. Thus, MS 447 Principal Arin Rusch now contends that the Math & Science identifier is narrow-minded, as the “curriculum has evolved and expanded.” Apparently sexist stereotypes are OK in the service of woke.
