[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] If they did away with HGC at the "lower" performing schools, and Asian/white kids from affluent areas stopped going there, all that would happen is that lower power performing school would be less diverse in that there would hardly be any Asian/white kids from higher ses. Having the HGC there actually seems to make those schools more diverse ethnically and SES. If they truly want to desegregate for both race and SES they should just bus kids from one side of the "tracks" to the other. Doing away with HGC will only make the racial and SES divide bigger within schools. And the MSA or PARCC test scores would probably still show the achievement gap along racial lines. [b]Getting rid of HGC will neither achieve closing the achievement gap or desegregating.[/b] [/quote] Agreed. And everybody knows this -- including the MCPS people who supposedly are trying their best to close the HGCs.[/quote]
