[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about all the kids who had MAP-M scores that high and did NOT get in. [b]Did they also not deserve to be there?[/b][/quote] This is the heart of the complaint. That MCPS uses murky selection tools to select a certain profile from the pool of qualified students. IE, prioritizing students from lower-income areas in a bid to reduce specific ethnic gaps. Now whether that complaint will hold up as the cohorts are selected year after year, remains to be seen. [/quote] Oddly, nobody on DCUM ever asked that question when MCPS used the previous murky selection process. It only became a concern when affluent west-county parents became worried that their children were being passed over for those other children, over there, who must be less deserving.[/quote]
