[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Equity is the commitment to ensure that every student and staff member, without regard to their actual or perceived personal characteristics, is given the individual challenges, support, and opportunities to exceed a [b]rigorous common standard[/b] in order to be prepared for academic and career success"

--MCPS definition of equity[/quote]

Well, there it is in writing. A rigorous [b]common[/b] standard for all. Dumb it up and dumb it down. [/quote]

Every industry has common standards.  If not they wouldn’t be known and understood by all involved.🙄[/quote]

Here's some examples of rigorous common standards from an earlier pp:

Elimination of honors classes (or rebranding grade-level class as honors as in the case of middle school English).
-Lowering the level of instruction to the lowest common denominator
-50% rule for assignments
-Exclusion of students from schools with large number of gifted students from admission to gifted magnet programs
-Lowering academic standards (including but not limited to grade inflation).
