[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Let me reduce to only 'Exceeds' English Asian 16.2% Black 2.7% Hispanic 1.4% White 11.4% Math Asian 43.8% Black 6.6% Hispanic 5.7% White 29.3%[/quote] Yup. Lots of kids.[/quote] ^^^in fact, speaking of math, let's do the math. K-5 enrollment is about 72,000. Let's assume an even distribution, so 72,000/6 = 12,000 students per grade. In 2013-2014, the demographics for K-1 (using MCPS categories) were 31% Hispanic, 30% white, 20% African-American or black, 14% Asian. So 3,720 Hispanic kids, 3,600 white kids, 2,400 black kids, 1,680 Asian kids per grade. for current fourth-graders. So 212 Hispanic kids, 1,055 white kids, 158 black kids, and 736 Asian kids scored "exceeds" in math. And 52 Hispanic kids, 410 white kids, 65 black kids, and 272 Asian kids scored "exceeds" in English. How many spots are there in the CESs?[/quote]
