[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] NP here. I find it problematic because the implication is that race should be considered for admissions in the magnet program. It seems that this is the only way to close the achievement gap, because nothing else seems to be working. Any genuine attempt to actually make the kids who are lagging behind, catch up academically and become academically high performing and competitive is not being attempted here. [b]Why not suggest intensive coaching, tutoring, mentoring to these kids from the early years[/b]? [/quote] The report actually does recommend that. Did you read the report? Here is the executive summary: http://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/uploadedFiles/info/choice/ExecutiveSummary-FindingsUpdated.pdf[/quote]
