[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our neighboring Thomas Jefferson HS gives seats to the top performers and then take lottery among top X% in every MS. This admission process is ruled recently as discrimination against Asians. Yet, it's way much better than the stupid pure-lottery admission process now at MCPS.

MCPS is suiciding its own reputable GT program. [/quote]
You're an idiot. Thomas Jefferson is a High School. Currently there are no lotteries in the HS admission process.
Not sure what you're trying to compare.[/quote]

HS has eliminated the CoGAT test this year. How to differentiate students with inflated GPA and MAP-test tail distribution which is acknowledged by NEWA that should not be used for differentiation?
Also, wait and see. Things could become worse next year and they could easily eliminate the HS holistic review because they have successfully removed the ES and MS ones.

This is not just discrimination against Asian. This is a true discrimination against any 99%ers in poor school zones and have no parent support. They are now thrown into a big ocean without any hope of getting a chance. [/quote]

I think it's a safe bet as to not if but when the HS magnet becomes a lottery.[/quote]
