[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please stop. There are systemic biases for sure against all students of color for different reasons, but no one really knows anything without getting in the minds of the admissions committee and getting more data. We don't know the racial breakdown of the applicant pool, the test scores or anything else. The problem with the magnet process being the way it is and lacking transparency is that it creates this kind of horrible racial tension and us v. them mentality that is really hurtful to our students and schools.

The racial breakdown of the applicant pool is public and has been posted here recently. Further, the criteria used by the committee have always been outlined on the county's website and discussed extensively at various open house meetings.[/quote]

Do you have a link out of interest?[/quote]

Someone posted it here a few weeks ago even. I didn't save it but maybe they'll see this and relink it.[/quote]
