[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is why, if they care as much about diversity as much as they say they do, they could take steps aside from replication. 1-eliminate sibling preference (not required to offer it) 2- acquire a second building and enlarge the class sizes to 150-200 students [/quote] Except that sibling preference benefits both high and low SES students. The at risk preference seems like the most obvious way to fix the problem. [/quote] Except the Council hasn’t approved an at risk preference for anyone so that isn’t an option. Since there are hardly any low SES kids left at Latin, eliminating sibling preference would open up some of the 45 seats that aren’t available, even for a couple years would introduce some new blood. If an at-risk preference is ever approved, they can implement that and restore sibling preference. [/quote]
