[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you've described a school that selects URMs. That's not anti-AAPI bias. Fwiw, there a number of AAPI students in FCPS of different backgrounds and some are high achieving and others are average. Don't have all the same concerns.[/quote] It is biased if the selection is not based on merit. [/quote] The problem is how do we fairly define merit? What if a wealthy school offers advanced classes unavailable elsewhere or an affluent family spends thousands on outside enrichment? Does this mean they have more merit? Should public shool programs be open to all county residents or just those who can afford enrichment? [/quote]
