[quote=Anonymous]Where are you getting this? There are no best practices. Different school systems are overhauling their selection criteria and are settling on different methods depending on what is convenient for their goals. NYC is redoing it's system and they have the same goals as MCPS to increase diversity but given most of the Asian kids they are trying to push out of the magnets in their system are poor they do not want to compare those poor Asian kids to poor Hispanic or poor black kids. The most "fair" system I have heard of is in Miami where individual students who are FARMS get some amount of extra points. This did end up giving them their desired demographics. [/quote]
