[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All children of all races in MCPS are afforded the same education and curriculum. They have accessibility to the same resources and information.

The parents and students bear the responsibility of availing of these opportunities.

Asians are doing well here. At one point Asians were behind Whites in all the metrics but now they are equal to them or surpassed them. If they can do it - other races can do it as well.

No more excuses.

Shorter PP: I don't recognize the existence of societal problems.[/quote]

Asians students have nothing to do with the existence of societal problems that prevent other races from achieving.   Maybe Whites should carry the historical burden of the inequalities and try ro remedy them. Indians come from a poor third world country that was robbed blind by Whites, and yet they are doing well here when they have been given the opportunity.

There is no reason that Asians should lower their own standards for this.  Asian students are achieving and excelling, They are model students. Nothing more should be expected from them.

A top down approach to fix achievement gap is in place. If the individual family dynamics and racial culture is preventing students from other races from achieving, what can Asian students do?

Asian students have demonstrated that the bar can be set high and still be achievable - they do not need to do anything more![/quote]
