[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] In the article, it sounds like the Asian parents who had their kids in advanced math classes wanted it to continue. Not sure why people who did not have their kid in the program should have any say in the matter.[/quote] The administrators of a public school district do not base their policy decisions solely on parents' stated desires. Nor should they.[/quote] Thus the article and controversy in Princeton. Getting rid of a program that is 90% Asian smells of politics. Kind of similar to why DC does not have a gifted and talented test-in (not application) program because the kids in it will be mostly white.[/quote]
