I suspect these schools were the only way for white and Asian parents to safely put their children in public schools; if they fill them with those under-represented populations (under-represented because their cultures place little value on education) then many of those original parents probably have to leave NYC.
my kid goes to Hunter; EARN grades is the operative phrase
dumbing down the test is tragic and harms the children
That is NOT helpful!
/s
The new changes are actually a racist policy which asserts that minority students are not capable of doing the work others do;
that they can never succeed without being given a crutch;
and that perpetuates the above stereotypes.
Everyone (including minorities) should reject it.
Correct! A bonus question:
Alizondo charges $10 to mow a medium sized lawn. On average, he mows 12 lawns per day and gives 35% to his assistant, Diego.
QUESTION: How long did it take Alizondo to swim to Miami?
Hmm OK, maybe this one:
Tyrone is meeting his girlfriend Soshaniqua at the movies at 6 o’clock. It’s 5:25, and Tyrone is six miles away.
QUESTION: Who is Tyrone’s biological father?
What does biological mean?
Question:
It is 9pm, and you are on MLK Blvd.
What are your odds of survival?
This be fun yo; I could make up these Q’s all day!
Am I in a vehicle (up-armored or not armored), on foot, or do I have Kevlar, body armor, or firearms?
Trick question!
;)
Scenario: You are in a vehicle, unarmored, and you have just scored a crack rock from your man on the corner, and everyone saw it.
I’m dead meat — two rounds from the .50 Cal sniper rifle that three ferals thieved from the National Guard armory penetrate the side of my unarmored vehicle and nearly cut me in half at the abdomen.
Later, BLM, directed by Soros anarchists, arrive at the crime scene and blame Trump and “Whitey” for the violence. No arrests are made.
I couldn’t agree more; the lowering of standards to accommodate blacks/Hispanics/women is a de facto government admission that they are genetically inferior. They should reject it, but they’d rather take the “token” money and run.
One student got into Tech with my kids class by suing to DOE for discrimination in administration of the test. His score was way low. I Think he lasted about 2 1/2 semesters and washed out with a D- average (lowest in the school. He really did not belong there and they weren’t dumbing down anything for him to succeed.
Stuyvesant, and SI Tech are rated as high as they are nationally for good reason. SI Tech only takes about 200 of the highest scorers each you from over 10,000 applicants. Hunter I know has a very good rep as well. I’m sure your kid will do very good academically in College if your experience is anything like mine.
My Mom went to a day of classes with little dude when he was in 9th grade. She’s a retired University Prof. Mom told me they were learning at a upper level of college.
bet it’s same at all specialized HSs
BTW - you tell those SI Lax players -New Dorp & Tottenville are going DOWN
