[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s funny. My kid is Egyptian and considered white on the census and that form you just posted. But he has dark skin and curly hair. Like Hoda Kotb on TV. Nobody treats him as white.[/quote] Funny:-) Officially shouldn't he be considered African American (just like Indians are white, but they belong to "Asians")? [/quote] Are you Egyptian, too? What do you mark yourself?[/quote] We’re Turkish but don’t put Asia or Mesopotamia. I think people should be able to state their parents or grandparents heritage. But what MCPS is getting at is access to federal title 1 dollars or showing various achievement gap data but redefining the data groups. I wish they focus on teach every segment of students not just farms or the poorly performing. We both work so I do t have time to do anything about the fact that my kids are bored and unchallenged.[/quote]
