[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I'm not convinced the 100 students with the "worst attendance and disciplinary records' would necessarily be all poor and black kids.[/quote] Ah, but PP said the 100 with the worst attendance and disciplinary records that are ALSO out of bounds students. That's gonna sweep up a majority Black/Latinx group. At any rate, it is dumb and racist idea and will never be implemented. [/quote] The best thing would be to modify automatic feeder rights. After OOB kids have had an experience at an elementary or at Deal, require a certain GPA, test score, good disciplinary record and good attendance record to be able to go on to Deal or Wilson as the case may be. That would be a better solution than ending feeder rights altogether. This would reward the students who have taken advantage of the education at their Deal/Wilson feeder elementary, and would weed out those who cause problems and will squander scarce resources going forward.[/quote]
