[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's no evidence to suggest that selection was done by race or even by neighborhood. This is complete nonsense. [/quote]
People suspect the new peer cohort consideration was a way to discriminate against students in certain school clusters. Again MCPS should release the test scores. [/quote]

There is no "suspicion" about it. MCPS explicitly said that they considered peer cohort in the home middle school. The issue is that you think that MCPS should not have used this criterion.[/quote]

This is largely tiger mom's winging that their anointed ones didn't make the cut. Now that admissions draw from a much larger pool it's more competitive than ever, but I agree the current programs are too small for the county's size. That's why providing more accelerated classes where a larger peer group is present makes the most sense. [/quote]

Exactly! No matter what the county does many of these people will find something to complain about.[/quote]

I don’t know what people are complaining about...now their middle schools get advanced programs right in the school and their kids don’t have to travel anywhere.  So once again the wealthy schools have the better end of the stick.[/quote]
