[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC schools were asked not to publish the names this year because the presence or absence of Malia's name would subject her to unwanted scrutiny.[/quote] That kind of stinks for the other kids selected.[/quote] Yes, but it does not take away the honor and it might actually make things more pleasant for kids within DC schools. Every year there is so much scrutiny on the list. When so-so students make it, there are always the "how did he/she make it" comments, and when top students don't make it, people ask why. It's just one test and the SATs and ACTs and school record matter so much more. I can attest to this because one of my kids is a great tester and the other is a good, but not great, tester. It did not make any difference in college admissions.[/quote]
