[quote=Anonymous]You know what's interesting? Everyone knows that this process has been unfair all along, and that it advantaged kids who already had all of the advantages (involved parents, access to the HGCs, reliable transportation, essay editing support, cultural literacy around the process). So, MCPS looked at that and tried to create a more fair process by testing many more kids and doing away with the components that were actually shibboleths for being middle class. OUTRAGE ensued, and MCPS actually changed something. That's the power of white supremacy. Black and Latinx kids, and poor and working class kids, get passed over for years and nothing changes but weeks after the system actually gives them some tiny advantages of their own, the goalposts shift.
