Good for you, Boston Parents.
Richard Nixon says “Sock It To Them!”
Wow, another quota system being implemented by the leftists. They just never quit.
As I understand it as an outsider, that’s precisely what the exam schools were intended to avoid. So now admission based on objective criteria like exam scores is just too “inequitable” to the “disadvantaged” for the woker-than-thou crowd. I’m sorry, advantage looks a lot like self discipline and hard work to me.
If blacks ever get into study mode like they did in the 50’s,it will scare the crap out of dems....
Exam schools?
I knew schools have exams. Now exams have schools?
This is another consequence of the false assumption that we live under, ie, "All races on the average are the same" The consequences of such a false assumption are that if one race performs worse than another in life, it must be due to one race oppressing the one that on average achieves less in life.
All the racial strife and self flagellation on the part of whites we see today can be laid at the feet of that false assumption.
This is a much more accurate view of reality.
I wish journalism students would study more. It’s ‘fewer’ exam school seats, not ‘less’ exam school seats.
If the Asian-Americans were not former southern slave-holders, they would not face the wrath of the “woke” crowd and have to pay reparations.
Oops.
Can’t these kids identify as living in other zip codes?

That was fifty years ago.
We are not self-governing.
