What were his scores?

Just to make the diversity chart look a certain way, ill-prepared students from underperforming schools are being admitted to TJ Math1, and are unfairly expected to catch up to students from top schools who are already two years ahead of them

There was a state MathLeague contest in Ashburn. The 4th grade winners had higher scores than the 5th graders, and this 3rd grader had higher score than the 4th graders.

These kids will do great at their home schools.

TJ was built specifically for kids like these. Their home schools will not be able to teach them, challenge them, and enrich their education as well as TJ would.

Perhaps, many years ago, but today, TJ offers a life-changing opportunity for many students from schools without a high-achieving cohort. Students like the two above will be fine anywhere.

Because they were the wrong minority, the inconvenient one.

Because they came to America of their own volition, at the right time, with access in their native countries to education that would lead to careers that would allow their children to live in significant privilege when compared to the minorities referred to as "convenient".

Above is BS. Some Asian immigrants come here educated but many, many come uneducated and their kids succeed and doing really well.

It’s tiring playing the victim card for blacks.

The differentiating factor why Asians succeed in spite of poor and uneducated parents is because they see education as the top priority and instill this in their kids. They will sacrifice everything for it. Poor black families are similar. But the overwhelming majority of poor black families don’t hold these values and frankly many parents don’t give a s*hit. Ask me how I know.

But the pandemic didn't affect high achieving children...

Are you saying that hispanic families coming to the States have no right to be prioritized? How dare you!
