[quote=Anonymous]from the article - https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/school-systems-appeals-process-leaves-some-minorities-out/2018/02/03/1dbc302c-08eb-11e8-aa61-f3391373867e_story.html?utm_term=.06544f0faaf7 "It’s not just that appeals are costly, said Tina Hone, who advocated for minority students when she was a Fairfax County school board member. Some black and Hispanic families may be less interested in advanced placement when it means moving a child out of neighborhood school where specialized education isn’t offered, she said. “It’s about cultural norms,” said Hone, who is African-American. “It’s not just about money.”"[/quote]
