[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These threads that attempt to sew right-wing outrage are so silly and predictable. They may want to give it up since MD voters are as dumb as those in VA.[/quote]

There you go again. Justify denying opportunities for some students and only focus on students of certain groups. Why? Doesn't all students deserve opportunity to excel in education? [/quote]

The equity accountability model looks at data of student performance to monitor that students in traditionally lower performing groups are doing well. It's not plan to give white/asian UMC kids bad grades or something [/quote]

But the data shows a different picture though. The lawsuit claims that Asians and highly abled students are not given the same opportunities that other (specific groups) students are provided with. I wonder why leave out high performers just because they work hard? Why deny them opportunities in magnet programs and resort to (non-transparent) lottery system instead of quantitative methods (performance) and pick who you want to provide opportunities to? Wouldn't this cause lack of trust in MCPS as a system?[/quote]

Equity is the priority in MCPS, not excellence. [/quote]

Yep.  That is the truth and MCPS is honest about it.  You can read their goals and listen to their language AND observe the actions.

Equity, not excellence.  [/quote]
