[quote=Anonymous]Our home ES is about 40% Latino and 35 or 40% white. In the top reading groups, there are very few Latinos. And the ones that were Latino and in the top reading group were all middle or upper middle class. At least one of these kids (whose parents are well educated and upper middle class) went to an HGC and a MS magnet. But I don't think the kids who aren't in the top reading groups (regardless of race/ethnicity) are applying to these magnets. Certainly I have never heard of any child not in a top group actually being admitted to an HGC or MS magnet. At my child's HGC there were kids on FARMs and there were minorities. But not at all in proportion to the number of kids who are minorities or receiving FARMS. But the numbers were in proportion to the number of minorities in the top groups. [/quote]
