[quote=Anonymous]It looks like MCPS was conducting testing for acceptance into the CES to screen out the best, brightest students. They are just focusing on diversity to give those at a disadvantage to have a better learning environment or opportunity. Someone mentioned that evaluation also considered the student's academic peer group of highly able students. They also take into account that accelerated and enriched programs may also be provided at the selected middle schools (e.g., advanced English and advanced Math). This is a BS way of protecting themselves from any lawsuit. Their focus is not on the brightest, capable students. It is an unfortunate situation as the school system is run by a few special interest administrators whose goal is anything but academic excellence. These guys need to protect their jobs and cater to their special interest group friends.[/quote]
