[quote=Anonymous]All of the above and more. The empahsis on what's "equitable" can CROWD OUT other concerns. Not equitable to give special attention to especially promising kids, #$%*!. Most top DCPS students don't know how to enter the sci competitions, or to reach for other high wattage resume polishing opportunities of the type that private and suburban schools direct kids to. With so few graduates getting to 5-star schools, few return to spread the word about how to go. Area alums tend to be willing to give talks about their schools to 9th-11th graders, and to interview applicants, with relatively few doing that for Walls and Wilson. Well, maybe the increase in the number of Latin kids staying for HS and Basis expertise imported from out West will alter the equation..... [/quote]
