Finger Scan Devices Coming to Washington County School Buses
Chipley- The Washington County School District is adding finger scan devices to all of its school buses to keep a better track of student attendance.
Chipley- Roll call is a thing of the past in Washington County Schools. Students now check in with finger scanning devices.
School Superintendent Sandra Cook said the old method just wasn’t cutting it.
“We got to talking about attendance in our district and how it was inconsistent,” said Cook.
The systems have been up and running for two months inside the schools, but since the majority of students ride the bus every day, district officials decided to move the devices there.
This story would have been just another “Feh?” to me, except when I tried to search for Chipley High School’s racial demographics, in an attempt to perhaps find a taboo racial explanation for the installation of this finger scanning system.
I don’t know why, but my first stop on Google was the website for the basketball team. Last season’s 14-man roster consisted of eleven blacks, two whites and one apparently biracial white-Asian. So I figured that this must be a majority black school, if not a heavily black school.
Then I dug deeper down into Google. Great Schools reports that Chipley HS students are 78% white and 17% black, and 5% everything else.
This means in percentage terms, the team’s demographics and the school’s demographics are almost mirror opposites.
A few months ago, a Steve Sailer reader noted that the few native born American whites in the NBA came from either areas that were almost all white or high schools that had very few if any blacks, and in turn postulated that they only got on the basketball career track because their high schools had so few if any blacks that the basketball squads had no choice but to be majority if not all white. If the school has enough blacks, then the coaches’ propensity is to stock the roster with blacks, based on the “Caste System” false notion of black athletic superiority.
