[quote=Anonymous]The article clearly points to what is wrong with their reasoning that the demographics of the magnets mirror the demographics of the district. This spring, the Stanford Graduate School of Education released a study that compared racial and ethnic achievement gaps in more than 2,200 school districts and metropolitan areas around the country. The study used the results of 200 million standardized reading and math tests administered to elementary and middle school students from 2009 to 2012. It found that white students in Montgomery County were, on average, testing 2.6 grades above the grades they were actually in, while African-American and Latino students each tested 0.5 grades below where they were placed—for a total gap of more than three grades.
