[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How does lowering the admission bar for magnets close the achievement gap? If this is what MCPS is doing, how will they measure it?[/quote] There is no evidence that MCPS is lowering the admission bar for magnets. And even if MCPS were lowering the admission bar for magnets, it wouldn't close the achievement gap. Or even lessen it. There is an idee fixe among a group of posters on DCUM that MCPS is trying to close the achievement gap by ruining the education of white and Asian-American kids, and many of the posts on this thread are a reflection of this.[/quote] +1[/quote]
