[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think there is any discrimination. I do think there is a huge disparity between academic achievement amongst racial/socioeconomic groups. Despite early efforts to get young underrepresented minorities into AAP, they continue to be underrepresented. That does not equate to discrimination. Are Asians not a minority? Asians represent a smaller % of the total percentage of Fairfax County than Hispanics.[/quote] The complaint specifically states there is discrimintion againt blacks and Hispanics and outlines how that discrimination is occurring - including the failure of the school system to identify and nurture black/Hispanic students in the early years as is done for white students. The complaint doesn't extend to Asians even though they are a minority in terms of populations, they are over-represented. [/quote]
