[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So they are planning to open 27 seats in 2 schools - Matsunaga and Stone mill and only students in that home school will be eligible to fill up those seats? I thought in the past, they would make sure students from every school got the opportunity to go into HGC and that is why only few (3 or 4) from each school. This new move complete gives an advantage to kids in those 2 schools. Last year my daughter was 1 among 8 wait-listed for HGC as there were too many kids from her school who scored beyond the median scores. Now while all qualified students in matsunaga/stone mill will get a seat in HGC, kids in other school will still have to go through this filter. [b]Why not make the seats in these new HGC centers accessible to everyone and there would be a better distribution to kids from all schools?[/b][/quote] Because you would fill it up with more whites and Asians and MCPS wants blacks and Hispanics.[/quote]
