Barring any major reversal, the gradual elimination of the existing program
will remove a major component of what many consider to be the city’s two-
tiered education system, in which one relatively small, largely white and
Asian American group of students gain access to the highest-performing
schools, while many Black and Latino children remain in schools that are
struggling.
Gifted and talented programs are in high demand, largely because they help
propel students into selective middle and high schools, effectively putting
children on a parallel track from their general education peers. Many
parents, including Black and Latino parents, have sought out gifted classes
as an alternative to the city’s struggling district schools, and have come
to rely on them as a way to set their children up for future success. | b*3 发帖数: 1 | 2 In a city in which it is all about identity politics, Asian-Americans need
to flex their muscle. Mayor de Blasio's school policies are designed to
hurt Asian-American children just to benefit African-American and Latino
children, and he makes no excuses for that. Just because Asian-Americans
value education and push their children very hard to excel.
Asian-Americans need to form new political alliances and push hard to
protect their interests. Otherwise, other identity groups will push them
around, deny a quality education to their children and treat them like
unwanted children in their own city. | b*3 发帖数: 1 | 3 Should the NBA and NFL institute a height and weight restriction so certain
ethnic groups of smaller stature are able to compete?
If an ethnic group dominates in any specific field so be it. Let talent and
hard work determine who gets in.
Lowering the standards will dilute the product in any field. | b*3 发帖数: 1 | 4 http://www.theamericanconservative.com/dreher/new-york-city-gifted-programs-schools-excellence-out-envy-equity-in/
