[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know if it is sour grapes exactly. We really don't know exactly what they take into consideration and seeing as how colleges take race into consideration thinking that it might play a role here isn't completely unreasonable.[/quote] Let's see, no where in the MCPS literature does it mention racial preferences or code words for racial preferences, you don't see a racial makeup even close to that of the county, the parents can google court cases to show it isn't allowed/used ....and yet they still think that's why their kid was denied a spot. Oh wait, it's because the criteria isn't clearly defined. By that yardstick everyone can claim the racial boogeyman for every situation. Because I don't know how someone is chosen for the job, gets the high evaluation, gets the special award etc. I can say race might have played a role because I didn't get it. [/quote]
