Do they somehow believe that their children will benefit from it?

And, not to put too fine a point on it, are they prejudiced against Asians?

Keep it up and I'm going to believe that everyone who pipes up against the investigation is racist.

I do not think that these posters are parents. They are probably BOE and Administrators. I think most parents do not care for their kids to be in magnet. Those who care, apply. Most do not apply.

Most parents know that being in a magnet doesn't matter. The only people that care are asians who haven't figured out how America works yet.

Most parents know the education difference between a high SES school and a magnet is negilible

Most parents don't care or even want their child taking Calculus in 10th grade

From a society level there is more benefit to giving kids in poor performing schools a magnet experience vs kids from already high performing schools where the magnet experience is going to be negligilbe diffferent compared to the base school cohort experience

That is so correct. We do not know how to bribe the crew coach to get the backdoor admission into colleges. We only know one way, and that is through the front door and based on our hard work.

Are you stupid, or are you a monster? Transparency is always good and for the benefit of everyone.

OP,

You were very courageous to file a complaint. On behalf of all MCPS families, thank you. Whether we know it or not, we are all affected by discrimination, if it turns out there is discrimination.

Thank you for draining off tax dollars that would be used to educate children so they can defend against a frivolous investigation

But being exceptional in a school with other exceptional kids means you stay behind in your home cohort and do not get access to enriched material, because you can self enrich? Nice.

I do not know why people are against kids studying / preparing for tests. It is not like the kids who prepare come in to the test knowing that the answer for question 1 is C, for question 2 is D etc....

Yep. Pretty much. Nice indeed

By definition, one is not exceptional if there are others like him. To be an outlier, one needs to separate himself from the pack.

Separating yourself from a pack of low performers hardly warrants a gifted and talented seat. MCPS should just announce there are no G&T programs, only pullouts for URMs that aren’t poorly performing. Everyone else can shut up and keep paying their increasing taxes for a subpar public school education.

This is the fiction you need tell yourself to feel better since your kids scores were subpar.

No, we're parents. Just parents who have an opinion that is different from yours.

There's no quicker way to out yourself as an unrepentant sock puppet, than accusing all other posters of being one person.

It's worse than that. Whites are interested in math magnets as a last resort for a high-functioning but socially hopeless kids. When an anyone else ties their self-worth to math prowess, they mark themselves as retrograde.

I think the divide has happened because people have realized that their students are falling behind because of subpar MCPS education. Yes, the achievement gap has always been there because of many reasons and continues to exist even today. The gap has been exacerbated because of subpar MCPS education and dishonest policy of hiding how poorly URMs were performing.

Unfortunately, magnet programs that historically had very small number of seats and were based on academic merit and performance, has unnecessarily become the face of this gap.

To draw a parallel - It is like saying that Miss USA competition is unfair because the contestants are beautiful, young and accomplished women and so they should be taking x number of women who have been victim of sexual abuse and should be made candidates. Now, maybe there were Miss USA contestants who were also sexually abused before but that was not the criteria that was used to select them before. They still had to be beautiful, fit, young, confident and accomplished. What changed now is that instead of actually helping the victims of sexual abuse by getting them legal, financial, psychological help you make them compete in the beauty pagent and pat yourself in the back because there is nothing more to be done for them.

Achievement gap exists and overall achievement of all children in MCPS is declining because crucial years in elementary and middle school is spent twiddling their thumbs because of the stupid curriculum, inefficient teachers, no textbooks etc. But to change the criteria of magnet programs selection is stupid, to deny deserving high performers place in magnet programs because they are affluent/asian/in W schools is even more stupid. But the real tragedy now is that instead of closing the achievement gap and raising performance for all, what is being seen as the solution is the erosion of the magnet program. This is so very stupid.

When you have MCPS central office, administrators and BOE filled with substandard individuals this is the kind of solution that you get.

Trumpism means inequitable systems are fine so long as the beneficiaries are those already at the top economically.
