[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So the goal for schools should be to be nationally ranked?

Silly me. I thought it should have something to do with education.

Yes, silly you.  The goal of a magnet is to attract top talent, not focus on diversity.

If the kids who are attending these magnets aren't able to perform at that level as the data is showing, then it's not really serving them, nor the high achieving students who didn't make it in because of "diversity".

It's failing.

And ^^PPs are correct:  a huge % of students from previous years were FARMs students.  They just happen to have a specific skin color.  It goes against some people's paradigm that those low income kids who perform well were not black, because apparently, if you are Asian and are high performing, then you must not be lower income.

Newsflash: the low income population of Asians in SF is fairly high.
