So address the link, how do you stop the white and Asian kids from performing better than the black and brown kids?  This is about wealth and not about race.  You can’t make poor kids magically rich.  That’s not how it works and taking all the honors slots away from them won’t help.[/quote]

Nobody is taking honors or AP slots away from anyone. There is no such thing as an "AP slot" in MCPS.[/quote]

That's fine so every English can be AP.  If you say so.

Explain how you prevent the white kids from doing better like in that link.  You keep ignoring the question.  Look at the link, how do you prevent that?[/quote]

Who is talking about [i]preventing[/i] any kid from doing well?[/quote]

So what's the plan then?  Send some kids from Potomac 15 miles away to change the education culture of the rest of the school?  To teach Hispanics how to speak English?  To teach black kids how to study?  What exactly is the purpose?  How do you stop the white kids from doing well and everyone else from doing poorly like in the link.  You keep ignoring the link because it's an example of the future of MoCo.  The next step will be to blame them because they're white.[/quote]
You don't understand.  It's not about helping the Black and Hispanic kids do better.  MCPS considers that a lost cause.  The new plan is to sprinkle Whites and Asians into the lower performing schools so that the [b]average[/b] test scores go up.  Get it now?  Your child is considered a tool to MCPS.[/quote]

It’s bigger than that.

Why did Jack smith take the test score results templates of black, Hispanic, white, Asian, and then another section farms and esol and remake it? And rename it some BS like MCPS Equity Model?

Now you look up a schools map test or may year end Pearson’s test and see the newly named FOCUS groups by race and by income for jack smith:

Black farms, non farms
Hispanic farms, non farms
Other farms, non farms

No effort to include cash pay jobs in assigning Farms status.  And remember, the more farms you have per school, you might kick out and get title 1 status, which is a bonanza because then the feds pay extra $4000 per pupil and you can have two teachers/aides per class in elementary school plus lower class sizes.  Awesome sauce.
