[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is their an advantage to choosing a particular race?[/quote] [b] School gets special treatment if a high number of blacks and/or hispanics. [/b]The Equitability Accountability study has 5 certain areas of focus, and the only groups (I won't use "minority" since Hispanic students outnumber all groups including whites at MCPS) to get special treatment even if non-FARMS are black and hispanic.[/quote] Citation please, with specifics about the "special treatment".[/quote] There’s no special treatment. PP is trolling.[/quote] [b]Then why do they track this data?[/b] There is a massive advantage to checking the Black box for college admissions, so maybe it's smart to check the same box when your kid is in high school. [/quote] Because they're following federal requirements.[/quote] ...in order to qualify for federal programs.[/quote]
