[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] OK, so are all of these kids getting into Stuy from the same HS? I don't think so. There are kids coming in from all different HS, so the kids from those HS have the same opportunities to learn the same things as the kids getting in. Same for HGC in MCPS. Kids from all over the county get into the program. There are five from my Dc's schools alone. There are about 100 kids in the 3rd grade, four teachers, kids switch classes between two teachers. So, at least 50 kids have the same teacher, were taught the same curriculum, had equal opportunity to learn. Yet, only two from the class of 50 got in. So yes, kids have equal opportunity within the same district.[/quote] Actually, the whole point is that all of these kids getting into Stuy are not coming from the same schools. Unless you think that every public school in New York City offers exactly the same educational opportunities as every other public school in New York City?[/quote]
