[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand why is this so hard to implement some process that is not subject to discrimination. The new changes are cleverly crafted so on paper, it may sound fine, but clearly intended to punish kids from academic focused families. I don’t mind no testing, but why can’t we simply use grades from regular school years and may be teacher recommendations to allocate some min seats to each school pyramid or base school (so aap centers are not at disadvantage) and fill remaining from an open pool? There won’t be any bias here, but of course board clearly wanted to punish certain groups. [/quote] How is this different from the current process? They implemented the minimum seats to reduce the Asian numbers. Use geography as a proxy for race. I'm not familiar with details of each school to know how good this is a proxy for race, though I know you can look at apartment prices in Herndon and identify the school ratings from that.[/quote]
