I think the reason why Filipinos are broken out in terms of education is due the them being a US territory. Due this this, the use of English is prevalent in the Philippines. If you ever watch Filipino TV, they mix English in everywhere.
This gave Filipinos a leg up over other Asians during the 1980s, a recent height of Asian immigration.
I’ve also noticed they break out a group of people called Hmong on some applications. The Hmong are a small group, but known to be the poorest of Asian groups.
As for Pacific Islanders, the term seems to apply to Polynesians.

That’s the formula.
I think the scores are BS. I see the the school that my wife was teaching at ranked in the 7 range. I used to have to help her grade papers and there’s no way those kids could score higher than the 2 range. My wife has taught at 3 other elementary schools, teaching 3rd grade, so i know moron 3rd graders by their work.

August 11, 2010 at 1:46 PM in reply to: Are federal workers overpaid? Avg 123k?? It’s insane! #589479jameswennParticipantI’m wondering about the overtime pay. I’ve worked at Hospitals and i noticed alot of folks don’t even start working until the afternoon and stay late to collect overtime.
