Watch: When Asked to Read Short Sentences, HS Students at One of Philly’s Most Diverse Schools Collapse

Besides enriching themselves, America’s leadership class has failed at everything, including their promises to educate young people.

In a pair of viral videos posted on the social media platform TikTok, students at Philadelphia’s Preparatory Charter School of Mathematics, Science, Technology and Careers — one of Pennsylvania’s “most diverse schools,” per the New York Post — struggled either to read a simple sentence or to make sense of it in their own words.

The first video, posted by TikTok user “whatthevek,” featured students who could not read the following sentence: “She wore a silhouette of clothes that were extraordinary but somewhat gauche.”

All five students stumbled on the words “silhouette,” “extraordinary,” and “gauche.”
