[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So do you think more blacks and latinos should be brought in even if they don't have the grades or ability yet?  The only people who seem to be forcing this are the blacks and latinos.  Otherwise, race would not have been brought up with AAP.[/quote]

You missed the whole point. I'm not pushing anything, that's your assumption. I am simply saying that my child's IQ is higher than 99.9% of the population yet I am not complaining that children with lower ability are in his class. His ability runs circles around his white and Asian classmates yet I am not saying they shouldn't be educated with him. So why are others saying that because SOME white and Asian students are of higher ability that they shouldn't allow children of other races of slightly less higher ability in the class. If that were true, my child should be in a class by himself. That's stupid.

Your students with Cogat scores in the 130's are low compared to mine and others with Cogat scores in the 150's and some at the 160 ceiling. Should your child be taken out of class because he doesn't meet the 150 threshold of a student like mine? I bet then many parents on this board would beg for them to lower the cut off to allow their kid in.
