[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really do not understand the argument, what is equitable about not providing the certificates.

I totally get that this is stupid, that all students knew their scores and it was easy to determine whether your child was commended.  My child was commended and I knew months before she got the certificate (or whatever it was).  My child is at a DCPS school, so not familiar with the FCPS specific issues.

I really don't understand the argument that not handing them out ws some sort of effort to promote equity.

Could someone please explain the theory of how handing them out could/would have been inequitable?[/quote]

Asra Nomani found that FCPS paid a contractor $455k to push an "equity imperative" that seeks "equal outcomes for every student".

Obviously, if some kids get "commended" and some do not, that was not an equal outcome for every student, and thus it is an offense against equity.

(If you're thinking that "equity" is just a kinder, gentler way of saying "communism" you are absolutely correct.)[/quote]
