[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They should still allow 20% of the students from each region. They can do it using the application process but each region in FCPS should receive 20% of the slots.[/quote]

It’s not good enough for the School Board members who know some pyramids within a region have stronger students than others. [/quote]

Something has to give.  This is a lot better than a lottery.

But it all starts in elementary school - that is where the resources should be spent.

There is a fight for the really talented URMs by the time you get to high school - regional privates, boarding schools, etc.  If they are talented and financially constrained, they can go to these schools for free.  They are much better represented in those schools.  [/quote]

You all are ignoring the other elephant.

The culture of the school needs to be fixed. A change in admissions to a lottery would accomplish this. If not a lottery, then a different change will be needed.[/quote]

You understand that language is code for anti Asian American racism, right?  The culture of the school is fine or even better.  You have no direct knowledge of the school’s culture yet freely speak about it.  [/quote]

Cheating is NOT the culture at TJ! And stop implying that all Asians cheat! There are hundreds of whites at TJ. Some of the whites cheat, but not all. Same with Asians. Just stop it with the lies, you racist SOB![/quote]
