[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AAP should be there, it should be just the top 2 to 5% of the class. Not that every parent irrespective of the score is allowed to refer and gets through due to the subjective GBRS. Gifted students need to be well served. If too performers are served in sports why not do the same for academics. Basketball is full of AA kids, why not make room for Asian kids by lowering the standards? It’s not equity if Asians are not selected in basketball due to their height. Equity shouldn’t be just for academics, it should be for everything and everyone. [/quote] Basing it on test scores would be fine if it weren’t for the test-prepping that is common in some schools. I think that’s why they still allow the parent referrals.[/quote]
