Few qualified teachers and limited funds present a growing problem with ill-educated masses matriculating or dropping out into the populace. One small example from Baltimore public schools —

...The percentage of students achieving proficiency in Math is 9% (which is lower than the Maryland state average of 42%) for the 2015-16 school year. The percentage of students achieving proficiency in Reading/Language Arts is 10% (which is lower than the Maryland state average of 44%) for the 2015-16 school year.

Minority enrollment is 81% of the student body (majority Hispanic), which is higher than the Maryland state average of 61%.
