[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not only are many of these appeals frivolous and waste County resources, but the County has to allow some to enter via this backdoor method, and it dilutes the experience for all.[/quote]

There is no basis for this statement.  Please provide detailed statistics that clearly support your assertion that those admitted on appeal "dilute" the class.  Have you tracked their performance versus the pool admitted in the first round?

Point is, the process of evaluation is held in secrecy.  When the rules of the game are unknown, there will always be uncertainty as to why and how decisions were made behind closed doors.  I refuse to believe that a government "committee" can and always will make the right decision for me or my child.  Accepting that "they are professionals and know best" is the line of a social liberal, but not for me.  If the committee makes a mistake (they are people and it can happen) then who is there to audit them?  If the process was open and consistent, then there would be less debate over borderline cases.[/quote]
