[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son (who is Black) was in the 95th percentile on MAP-R at a "focus" school, was placed in the lottery, did not get in the regional CES. Not sure how or if this matches the anecdotes already gathered in this thread. I'll admit to a little pang because I was in "GT" classes when I was a kid and I have a love/hate relationship with that label. But staying in his home school is probably a better move for him, and I feel confident that his needs will be met. [/quote] [b]You should appeal this decision. [/b][/quote] WHY. Why should this parent appeal? I'm a flaming progressive that would be happy to have race be a consideration, but it's not. So what is there to appeal? A 95th percentile kid WAS put in the lottery pool, but then wasn't randomly selected? Just like tons of other 90th, 95th and 99th percentile kids, because there are more of them than slots available? Thus...?[/quote]
