[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] They are specifically talking about "in-group comparison." So, they may not be using "skin color" in the sense of a paper bag test, but they are sure as heck considering using reported race/ethnicity. There is no other metric. The school doesn't collect SES data other than FARMS, and they don't collect parental education level. So, yes, they are considering using reported race/ethnicity in order to make in-group comparisons. Whether or not that is legal probably remains to be litigated. [/quote] OK, you're right. MCPS paid Metis to write a report that recommended that MCPS break the law, and then MCPS published that report and asked for public comment, to make sure that everybody knew that Metis was recommending (on MCPS's dime) for MCPS to break the law. It's a terrible way to run a school district, and you should a. run for the Board of Education b. sue.[/quote]
