Parents respond following allegations against TM Landry College Prep

[@yestars9239]

Thankyou for exposing the criminals and what they did to the students and parents. This was originally a success story of positive proportions! And now has turned Heel. Students scammed and even worse students were physically abused.

[@MYNAMEISKLAY]

I have a question. Why didn't the Universities question the transcripts, etc. They just allowed an unaccredited school to send them transcripts? From my understanding, T and M have no licenses for the school, its teachers, etc. With this being said, how didn't any colleges pick up on this act sooner? I also wonder how the twins who graduated in CO 2018 (to go to Stanford and Harvard) are doing?

[@johndanielson3777]

Why the fuck was Harvard and other prestigious colleges accepting students who went to unaccredited high schools?

[@JogBird]

they played the race card, white ppl cannot question it, its like the trump card.. im black let me in

[@howardroberts4549]

That's a huge question and it's possible affirmative action quotas being met. It really begs an in depth investigation of the institutions.

[@Timothee_Chalamet_CMBYN]

Most of the students that got accepted to Ivy League could not keep up, one test showed a student wasn’t even at 10 level. I think there was 2 students still enrolled but behind

[@MichaelDelvalle-nt4gp]

the race card

[@stephhhsmiiith]

how could the parents not realize that having young kids in the same room as older kids learning different levels? like obviously something was going on

[@MYNAMEISKLAY]

Damn, she didn't take Chem? This shows that the school set its students up for failure.

[@MYNAMEISKLAY]

@Kevin Bacon ohhhh, that makes sense. Actually seems like a smart con job til you realize that they only took advantage of their students / put them at a disadvantage

[@MYNAMEISKLAY]

@Kevin Bacon The owners did this to get media attention and donors, but with the attention came questions and investigations.

[@johndanielson3777]

Chem is part of the graduation requirement my nigga. I took it my junior year of high school.

[@lzmunch]

you could get by without taking chem in my hs. But you gotta take a physical science and why for the love of God would you put yourself through physics when you could take chem. Im pretty sure its just neglect for their school tho

[@alexisprimeaux2524]

John Henderson at TM landry?

[@kashabrown2692]

People always trying to cut corners & scam. Hope they close down

[@christinedavidson5633]

600 dollars a month and its an empty building, yet no one questioned shit? Why did parents not have red flags going off when all they see are Costco folding tables and almost nothing else.

[@mj0037]

I'd like to hear more from the parents who are satisfied with the school. It sounds to me like their children were well prepared before they enrolled at TM Landry.

[@ofcoursewetran]

@@anonymousanonymous-nt8ls To clarify, this "imperfection" you're talking about involves academic fraud and physical/emotional abuse... The owner of the school sounds like he cares about his community, but that doesn't mean he's qualified to run a school or justified in manipulating the system. If a white, Asian, or Hispanic was running the school, it'd still be REALLY messed up.

[@mmmmmvodka]

It seems the kids need to attend school up until 11th grade, get into Landry for 12th once their basically done with all of their core classes, and their application for ivy league schools and acceptance will be complete. For any parent who wants their kids to get into ivy league, this is a great investment if you think about it. For kids who have gone there longer for one year, it's a nightmare.

[@nemooek5203]

Not anymore their reputation is destroyed in the public eye and more importantly in the college's eye

[@natecruz7114]

Why tf would you ever send your kid to a scam school in the first place?

[@chex4214]

You cannot teach or coach a student to score 28 on the ACT who doesn't already have a strong foundation. That's like saying you know someone who can jump 30" vertical, but if they try to jump 20", they fall on their ass. The reported average ACT score of 28 is wrong or needs to be clarified (maybe it's the practice score, or a custom modified "coaching" version). One of the best performing high schools here in the metro Twin Cities, Minnesota is Cretin Durham Hall, a catholic private school. Their average ACT is 28. Woodbury High, a suburban high, has the same average ACT of 28. The average student from either of these schools would run circles around any average student from any public high school in the country. No way in hell the Landry students are 28 ACT average.

[@familyyoutube2460]

chex lol have you ever heard of cheating? Maybe it was the method they were using to take the test? You are dumb.

[@mirabelbriggs1104]

I know Woodbury high and East Ridge is similar

[@latlj1283]

You need to get 35 or above to get into Ivies. Typically.

[@queengkzi3942]

This is what happens when you want equality of outcome.

[@n_a3522]

Huh?

[@dfs6575]

I’m really curious on how these kids are doing in those top school.

[@gregisthefastestgrowingcha4442]

Why didn’t they mention the school has no windows

[@ohcamryn]

greg is the fastest growing channel on the internet thats a huge point

[@aidoll3692]

Not having windows isn't necessarily a bad thing, but idk

[@KneeJerkReactor]

T.M. Landry: We need to teach you these courses so that you can get to Ivy League Universities and get ahead with life. Millionaire Gamers (esports athletes) and Pro Poker Players who just finished high school: (Laughs) look at these Stupid clowns. Comedy Show?

[@bruhi7032]

2:25 omg the transaction 🤣👏

[@mamamarianovits9029]

Wow... just wow. @4:19... well, as long as they have to "do reading", then they'll fit right in at Harvard and Yale.smdh

[@Timothee_Chalamet_CMBYN]

So sad, black ppl need to get a real education and rise up not fake stuff like this. Take some pointers from the black university, those ppl are the real deal.

[@kayrox4]

Casey this is not “black people” this is a school that happens to be black. don’t put that on all black people hun

[@lindseyw5023]

kayrox agreed!

[@gregknight9542]

They said he falsified classes they never took they never said they were not smart enough to take and no whistle blower was in the class room to see or determine how smart these kids are.They were fed some shit and treated like it to from a no good dude.And I'm sure if they get the proper teaching and preparing they'll do find on any test.I'm glad it wasn't my kid that he put his fucking hands on cause I'd be locked up.So don't blame the kids and say what they can and can't do cause you don't know.

[@latlj1283]

There are some amazing Black colleges and they are serious about the real education.

[@shifttube1283]

People should have know sum was up when they put all them videos online like a sales pitch or sum normal schools dont put there students shit out there like that

With this scandal and the other college scandal for rich people how many people actually at ivy leagues are actually smart? Lol

Hopefully all the students will be charged criminally for fraud, larceny and forgery especially if they have gotten scholarships.

[@Da1PrettyT]

Because black kids who are smarter than you belong in jail because they trigger you. Poor snowflake

[@Timothee_Chalamet_CMBYN]

8gauge212 but none of these students are “smart”, they were barely 10th grade math level.

What's a thug and who wouldn't last 5 minutes.You just had a group of rich white kids who parents paid for them to get in.And whether you know it or not there are some smart thugs that need a chance.So if you don't know shit about the thug life you can't speak about it and you make not know it but it's some stupid motherfuckers at Harvard and they ain't thugs.
