[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is so pathetic about this is that while MCPS may have intended to reduce the Asian students in favor of other minority students, the end result after admit acceptances seems to be replacing higher performing Asian students with lower performing white DCC students. White privilege is alive and well and the white DCC mommies on this thread are busy protecting it! They could care less about Latino or AA students and are constantly, desperately seeking more URM whites to "save" their neighborhood schools, want to bus the poor kids out of their schools , and push for schools within schools so their kids don't mix with the other lower performing population. Biggest bunch os hypocrites on the planet.

The whole thing is a big cluster. No one is happy except the DCC white mommies who think they benefited somehow. Actual URM students were not helped in any way. MCPS is yet again in legal hot water this time for racial selection thinly disguised as geographic discrimination. Principals and teachers got screwed when the central office tried to dig themselves out at the last minute by creating faux enriched classes that didn't exist.[/quote]

You missed the point which was to identify the most qualified students for these programs. Almost 10X as many students competed for the limited slots this year than in previous. Changes to the test and selection were made such that prepping had less of an impact. [/quote]

what variables are the kids competing on to be admitted?[/quote]
