The data is here. Black students in HoCo schools, particularly at Middle and High School, have higher achievement in Math and[b] Language Arts.[/b]

So more Black students and the Black students they have perform better. As a result, it’s hard to justify the demographic determinism arguments people keep repeating.

The data clearly indicates that for the average student regardless of race, HoCo provide a better education. And yet, as people claim here, HoCo schools are segregated. [/quote]
Your own data does not support your assertion.

That data shows that black students in MCPS do better in ELA - across the board. For math, in ES, MoCo is higher.   And, there are more Black kids who qualify for FARMs in MoCo than HoCo.

Hoco: 38.5% / 39.1% / 48.9%	
Moco: 39.8% / 40% / 50.5%

So, all in all, seems that black kids do better in MoCo than HoCo.   [/quote]
My data? It’s the states data. I have no idea who you are but the fact that you would go through the trouble to misrepresent publicly available data is bizarre.

Math
MoCo: 35.9% / 21.9% / 39.4%
HoCo: 32.5% / 26.7% / 45.9%

goodness you're dense.

Look at the ELA data, and math for ES.  Black students in MoCo do better in those four metrics, while HoCo does better for black students in MS/HS in math only - two metrics.

And I called it "your data" because you cited that data, which actually doesn't support your assertion that Black students do better in HoCo than MoCo (well, only for HS/MS in math). Additionally, the graduation rate for black students is higher in MoCo than HoCo.

So, again, how is HoCo better for black students than MoCo?  [/quote]
