[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I think MCPS is spending too much time and money lowering bars and expanding programs in strategic places just to make it LOOK like they are successful at closing the gap. But they are not really closing the gap this way. It's fake. They are changing the standards. I would have spent more of my efforts on the early education and STEM programs targeted at URM that they are putting in place. I think those will make a difference in the long run but they are too small right now. [/quote] They are changing what standards? Do you know how MCPS measures the performance gap? It's not by percent of kids in compacted math, and it's not by application magnet programs.[/quote] It's not one measure. It's a lot of them. But enrollment of URM kids in compacted math is one. They also track applications, admissions and enrollment into magnet programs by race.[/quote] its a measure of "performance" -- not enrollment.[/quote]
