[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's laughable that someone would think the magnet program should reflect the demographics of the county. If that's what mcps is after, then those programs should be removed indeed.[/quote]

Why is it laughable? I'm not laughing.[/quote]

Just look at test scores by demographics.  That is the answer[/quote]

According to PARCC results, there were ~2400 Black and ~3450 Hispanic students in grade 3 in MCPS 2015 school year. Fewer than 10 students met "level 5: exceeded expectations" in both Math and reading in each group. 
There were ~1600 Asians, 389/185 met in math/reading. ~3500 White, 472/316 met in math/reading. These are the base for the 4th grade HGC. I will be a genius's task to achieve racial-balance in  HGC without hurting the quality of the program.[/quote]

My white kid is at the HGC and got a 4/5. Or maybe a 5/4, I don't remember which. Anyway, not a 5/5. [/quote]

What's your point? I bet there are more than 10 AA/Hispanic students in each magnet program grade.[/quote]
