[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I am going to call a spade a spade, but the magnets especially the top ones might as well be private schools. They are just tax-payer funded. The FARmS rate at least for TJ is lower than Langley. Also there are private schools with black kids proportionally and Latinos.[/quote] The impact would be significantly larger [b]if local DC private schools had a higher proportion of Asian Americans due the widening achievement gap/gulf between Asian Americans and European Americans[/b]. To follow the poster's theme of calling a spade a spade.[/quote] There is the tuition issue. You want to go to Sidwell/STA/Holton/GDS, you gotta find $35,000 per kid, per year. I feel very confident that none of these independent schools practices a anti-Asian applicant bias and none limits the number of Asian admits. [/quote]
