[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Child's third grade teacher told us that not only do the schools get the list of accepted students, they get the scores for all students who applied, including those who were rejected or wait listed. She also said that the school sometimes has no idea why one student was selected and another wasn't.[b] For example, she said there were two students who had identical checklists and scores were almost exactly the same and one got in and one rejected.[/b] School also advocated for another student to get in, he scored very well, and was rejected.[/quote]

Could it be to balance the male/female ratio or add diversity to the class? Also I'm surprised 3rd grade teacher get every detail and that he/she would discuss it with a parent. [/quote]

[b]She actually told us quite a lot of details about the scores and who was accepted, etc. [/b] I agree that most teachers would not discuss such things with parents but this one does.

To answer your other question, I think it is illegal to select based on race or gender.  [/quote]

I would be furious if I learned that my child's teacher was sharing his/her personal information with other parents.

That is completely inappropriate.[/quote]
