[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Given the trends, specifically the rapid increase in the number of white students at schools like Walls, I'm not sure this loosening of requirements will make much of a difference. They're still going to trend more white and affluent in the future; I think the city is just trying to mitigate this so that DC's poor black students aren't left behind in quite so dramatic a fashion as current trends would suggest.[/quote] Don't forget that Walls has the interview phase. So if a few high scoring kids are deemed a "poor fit" it could make some room for kids who passed but were closer to that line.[/quote]
