Chicago selective enrollment high schools face huge demand for few spots
Amid federal investigation of admissions, parents and students complain the
process is complicated and secretive
August 25, 2009|By Stephanie Banchero, Tribune ReporterWhen Celia Hensey
applied to Walter Payton College Prep last year, she felt confident she'd
get into the top-flight Chicago public school.
The Hyde Park teenager was a straight-A student who aced the selective
enrollment high school entrance exam. She scored in the 90th percentile on
her middle school tests and tallied 984 points out of 1,000 on the overall
admissions scale.
Her likely downfall? A nasty flu bug in 7th grade that kept her out of
school for five days. In the complex and competitive world of selective
enrollment scoring, Celia was docked 10 points for five absences.
"It's so crazy competitive that you basically have to send your kid to
school sick just to make sure she doesn't ruin her chances of getting into a
good high school," said Celia's mother, Lisa Hensey. "My daughter did
everything she had to do academically, but she gets punished because she got
sick. What kind of message does that send to kids?"
As a federal investigation swirls around admissions practices at Walter
Payton and the city's eight other vaunted selective enrollment high schools,
it has spotlighted a troubling problem in the city's education system:
There are so few good high schools that high-achieving teenagers like Celia
must fight over scarce slots.
And they are battling odds they don't understand and that school officials
are reluctant to fully explain.
A bad cold, a few wrong questions on a state math exam, or a B instead of an
A in 7th-grade social studies is enough to keep a student out of an elite
school. So, too, can falling on the wrong side of racial enrollment
guidelines put into place to help balance the makeup of selective-enrollment
city schools.
Celia was among more than 15,000 students who applied for about 3,000 spots
in the 2008-09 freshman selective enrollment class. About 80 percent of them
were totally shut out.
Competition at the top schools was especially fierce. Walter Payton accepted
only 2.5 percent of applicants. Northside College Prep took 3.2 percent.
And the competition is not letting up.
For the upcoming school year, more than 16,000 students applied, a 34
percent increase from 2006, according to recently released data. The average
admission score of students accepted to Lane Tech College Prep was 877 in
2007, compared with 909 for the upcoming school year. At Whitney Young, the
mean score jumped from 941 to 965.
For many city families, Chicago's selective-enrollment high schools offer an
educational opportunity generally found only in pricey suburbs or private
schools. Spread across the city, these premier schools are far superior to
most neighborhood schools and are among the best in the state.
The average ACT score at the elite Chicago public schools was 24 last year,
compared with 16 in Chicago's neighborhood schools and 21 in Illinois. Four
of them bested academic powerhouse New Trier in Winnetka in performance on
the state achievement exam.

据说CPS改政策了，以前是一千分，现在改900分了。

不知道这孩子最后哪去了，因为缺情确实有点亏，
谁能保证孩子小学初中这八九年里从来不生病啊。：（

没办法，人太多，都要考，总要有点刷人的办法。
不过09年因为H1N1无数的人请假，CPS抗不住了就改政策了。

会!!
您会为您的孩子树立一个坏榜样 -- 不把上学当作重中之重(top priority).
不谢.
