[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about - Year round school for poor URM students starting from pre-K? These students must get into gifted programs to get into 10 month of regular school schedule. This will bridge the achievement gap in my opinion. [/quote] You want to pass a law with different school attendance requirements depending on the student's race/ethnicity and the student's family's income? Really? And would this requirement apply to the kids of my neighbors, who are African-Americans with a law degree and an MBA, respectively? Please explain. [/quote] Well, we are talking about changing the admissions criteria for magnets based on race/ethnicity and family income, are we not? So, why not change the attendance requirement for schools as well?[/quote]
