[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think some parents with kids who had higher scores are justifiably upset about the lack of transparency and the fact it obviously wasn't a straight lottery.[/quote]
MCPS will never release the recipe for the secret sauce. If they did, too many parents would try to game it.[/quote]

You know you can file a Maryland Public Information request and MCPS would have to release information such as:

Number of kids considered county wide and by school
Number of kids placed in lottery pool countywide and by school
whether 1 lottery pool was run or several and if several what criteria (sex or other statuses?) 
breakdown of number of kids considered with IEPs, 504 plans, FARMS status and by race
Range, mean and median of MAP scores and GPAs of considered students, pooled students and lottery winner students
number of waitlisted students 
number of acceptance/declines of admissions offers

I’d also want to know how the admitted cohort of students broke out by sex, race, ethnicity, ESOL, FARMS and IEP and 504 status compared to the same categories of admitted students last year and the year before to see how the pandemic affected the process.
