[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are [b]MORE Asian students at TJ since the admissions change than almost any other year in the school’s history[/b].[/quote]

The people against the new admissions process aren't necssarily concerned about the number of asians so much as the quality of the students.
We are concerned that the racial disparity propelled FCPS to abandon merit in favor of chance to get a student body that more closely approximates the applicant pool.

[quote]Asian students still make up the [b]majority of students. More than all other groups, combined[/b].[/quote]
Yes.  
That is what majority means.  
Asians also make up a majority of the applicant pool, so if you are taking a cross section of the applicant pool then then you will likely end up with majority asians.

Edited prior post because of misplaced quotation mark.

The acceptance rate for Asian applicants is still higher than average.

No discrimination, as declared by the courts.
