That seems questionable. In a lot of school systems, the best teacher may be the difference between a kid ending up in jail or not, but kids that are flirting with that line aren't going to be particularly successful on aggregate. And American society loves sending black kids to jail. So, what's the value add there?
It's so much more complex than that.

Though, the difference between going to jail or not pretty quickly adds up to the 250k number. Yes, this is way more complex than my two minute writeup of a small chunk of a 94 page paper.
