[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Exactly. If MCPS was testing EVERY STUDENT in 3rd grade and giving the top students automatic admission - it would be another thing. If they were expanding magnet programs to accommodate the top 3-5% students in the entire county- that would be another thing. If they were enforcing that all 2nd graders were being prepared to take that exam at school then it would be another thing. [b]However, they are just lowering the standards so that they can say that they took more Blacks and Latinos.[/b] What about Whites and Asians who are also ESOL and FARMS? Poverty + under-achievement in this county IS falling along racial lines. It is irrefutable. However, the Asian-American population (rich or poor) bears no burden to problem. [/quote] There we go again. Another post saying that the only way to admit more black and Latino students is to lower the standards.[/quote]
