[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MCPS documents clearly state that seats were allocated differently, with more directed toward students assigned to lower performing MSs. For Eastern and Takoma Park, 75 seats went to non-CES kids, 25 to CES kids. Anyone who thinks that ratio makes sense based on purely objective criteria is smoking something.[/quote]

Well, it’s gotta be healthier than smoking sour grapes...[/quote]

Their post literally doesn’t add up since there are around 220 to 240 total seats at eastern and Takoma. Without a credible source, it appears they’re making up numbers to suit their narrative of choice and lend credit to unproven conspiracy theories. [/quote]

Exactly - When they things like "MCPS documents clearly state..." but fail to provide a citation it's clear this is nonsense.

Sure, it would be meaningful to know the percentage of Eastern students that came from the CES which focus on humanities, but for Takoma, it's mostly irrelevant. However, it would be helpful to know the percentage of Takoma Magnet kids that had compacted math. I'd be surprised if it isn't in the 90% range, but I'm guessing.[/quote]
