[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An exam graded on a curve as a barrier to entry is a bad idea?
[/quote]

Yes, if the curve is manipulated by families paying $4-5K for privileged access to secured materials.[/quote]

You didn't include the manipulation with cheating in your previous post. [/quote]

Did you mean the FCPS school board cheating kids out of their rightful seats by gaming the system to get the outcomes they want?  Yep.  We should keep bringing that up and keep it live in people's minds, at least until the next school board elections.[/quote]

Except the school board isn't doing this. They're trying to do the right thing and do their best for all students.[/quote]

That's nonsense.  They do what's politically expedient at any point in time, whether it's making a decision to reduce the percentage of Asian kids at TJ to placate local activists, ignoring its so-called commitment to "equity" when changing the Langley/McLean boundaries, or depriving families in Fairfax/Oakton of a planned new elementary school to keep a dog park in Oakton open instead.

It would be objectionable if they had misguided principles, but they don't have any principles, so their desecration of a once-proud school system is even worse. [/quote]

Exactly! It is nonsense since the school board is only leveling the playing field in an effort to eliminate a toxic environment created by students who were pushed and prepped to the extreme by misguided parents. Their new system is so much better since it favors aptitude not prep.[/quote]
