[quote=Anonymous]Another statistic. It also means that 30% of RM students taking AP/IB's are with the magnet. If we remove the IB Magnet from RM, this means that 42% of non-magnet graduates do not take an AP exam at all. The magnet program similarly boosts the High School statistics at Blair. Blair has approximately 400 (100 / year) magnet program students. This means that 263 non-magnet students took AP exams out of 592 non-magnet graduates. This means that when you subtract out the Magnet program from Blair HS, 56% of the students didn't take an AP exam. This seems to contradict the MCPS narrative that "equity" can be served by lowering magnet standards to 85% lottery (from 98-99%). Why? If making instruction accessible didn't work at Blair, why would lowering the Magnet qualification standards help?[/quote]
