[quote=Anonymous]The point isn't that there aren't kids in application high schools from across the city - there are - and the application process is designed so that there will always be some discretion, and some would argue that discretion ensures a student body that reflects the city's geographic, racial and economic diversity. But many here have argued for a test-in (not an application) middle school that admits students based on test scores and advanced academic skills. Application and test-in are not synonymous. Re location -- it is one thing to send a 9th grader across the city alone on transit. Many are more reluctant to do that with a 6th grader. [/quote]
