[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]The best part is "several posters" - everyone knows it's just you by your crazy writing style.

[b]And we've answered your stupid question several times[/b].The real question, is why can't you get the answer through your head? [b]As you've been told by other posters besides me,[/b] [b]there are so many whites in MoCo, way more than there are Asians[/b], it's ridiculous to postulate some white "old guard" who is out do away with advancement for .... their own kids???? It's incredible you can't understand this simple point.[/quote]

Is the answer a [i]yes[/i] or  [i]no[/i] to the question:   Is there a widening achievement and academic performance gap between Asian Americans and European Americans (whites) in Montgomery County and MCPS?[/quote]

Seriously doubt it.  The US Department of Education has tons of datasets available.  I used one of their datasets for a class during my Master's degree in public policy (data from PG and MO) and as I stated earlier - the gap I found was between white/Asian and black/hispanic.   Not between white and Asian.  And plenty of other research backs this up.

I still don't really understand why you are so upset about this.  You truly seem to be anti-Asian so why do you care if your premise is true?  Why do you care if MO CO wants to "hold back" Asian students?

Finally - I dare say there are many white parents who are upset by the lack of math acceleration because they feel their kids will no longer be able to advance.  So I really don't see how this whole thing ends up "helping" white kids get ahead....[/quote]
