[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]You have a very particular view of the case, and by that, I mean biased. There is no indication that race was a factor. Again, it's like people just want everyone to think Asian kids are smarter, and these are somehow their spots. The spots don't belong to any race. And, this has nothing to do with TP kids who are at the school already and take no out-of-boundary spots.[/quote] The data does show that Asian American kids in MCPS score much higher than whites and other groups on every measurable point -SAT, PARCC, MAP. COGAT. Don't forget that curriculum 2.0 didn't just widen the gap between whites and AA/latinos, it widened the gap between Asian American and white kids. [b]The feds would not be bothering to investigate a case that has no merit.[/b] Its more than fishy that Asian American admissions went down so much in the past two years while white admissions went up when the data on every other front suggests it should the reverse. Time will tell and I'm sure that the feds will look at all the data which MCPS can not be pleased about one bit. My money is on the outcome being that MCPS shuts down the magnet or at a minimum stops giving lower performing white kids in the DCC an easy way in. [/quote] You don't say.[/quote]
