[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Option 4 sounds like AAP in Fairfax County. Instead of silly lotteries you should be able to test out of poor performing schools. That makes sense.[/quote] I'm the PP with the 4 options. I can see how #4 sounds like FFX's AAP, but I personally don't think that's a good model. I'm not in FFX, but from where I sit, AAP looks more like a mechanism to let middle-class and wealthy white and Asian students cluster themselves further in highly segregated schools. I'm obviously no fan of promoting diversity over performance, but I don't think school districts should be discouraging diversity. As I envision #4, the "lucky few" would be pulled mostly from H/PBH schools. But as I wrote, there are lots of variations and different plans might make sense for different school districts, so maybe something like AAP makes sense for a place like FFX.[/quote]
