School: Honors Classes Will be Decided by Skin Color

African is a huge continent- I'm sure there are many nations/areas where no Europeans are seen.

Agreed.

When the school board released this statement in response, "All students, regardless of race, must meet academic criteria to enroll in advanced level coursework," I knew that it meant they would be lowering their academic criteria requirements, just like the military did to advance more women who did not meet the physical requirements.

North Africans are kind of their own type of people- not the "Euros" this idiot poster is talking about- with out "Eurocentric" schools. Caucasian doesn't equal "Euro".

Yes, it's horrible when they lessen requirements for any of these things.

found this from 2015

Policies such as grade requirements, teacher recommendations and entry exams have historically prevented many black and Latino students, and low-income students, from taking AP classes. Now the College Board and school districts are recognizing that, and districts around the country are flipping access so that any student can choose to take an AP class — that’s the policy in both Los Angeles and Long Beach unified school districts.

How about all of the races which weren't included? I'm speaking of Middle-Eastern, Indian, Native American, Brazillian-Portugese, etc.

You do realize there are those who thought they were one race and actually weren't due to being adopted, right? That's one of the reasons of the popularity of Ancestry.com.

Skin color is not always an accurate way to categorize people. For example I have met blond haired, blue eyed, very fair skin men and women who were actually mixed race. Yes they were at least 1/4 Native American. Sometimes their full-blooded siblings looked completely different.

Then you have situations where children actually have different parents and grandparents for various reasons than other family members. See where this gets complicated and even ridiculous? Are you going to make all students submit DNA tests to get into a mixed race category as opposed to Caucasian?

Hollywood has called such actors and actresses "exoticals." Casting is one solely on the basis of looks rather than actual reality. Therefore 100% Caucasians (for several generations) have been cast as "exoticals" if they look different than most White people.

That's how my school was. You could choose to take the classes yourself. That's a fine way to do it- but quality should not be lowered. If any student finds they can't deal with the advanced classes, they go back to regular classes.

Also, my school offered to let students take college courses for a reduced fee. If you failed the college course you couldn't take another one based on the public school program.

Institutionalized race quotas are needed in academics and civil service because some races are less intelligent than others. It's that simple.

This^

"“American demographic trends indicate that America will be a majority minority nation in the next 25 years,” the letter read."

A "majority minority" nation?
Double-plus ungood!
If their teachers are stupid enough to write this sort of tripe it's small wonder they have outcome based advanced programs.

They are actively working toward that happening through massive immigration. Whites should never have let that happen to the future of young Whites. This is probably the worst thing one generation ever did to another in history.

Bullshit SJW speak.

Subjective my ass, they are all in the same class, the same school. They've taken all of the "subjective" out of the school already.
It's not about family values. Leave that social engineering shit at the door, asshole.

First of all, the link clearly shows that the ratios were a goal not a means of enrollment.
Second, as a teacher, you'd be surprised what happens when you open up advanced classes to all students rather than "ivory tower-ing" higher level learning. Students rise to the challenge.
I teach AP, and our district has shifted to open enrollment. I have more kids who are encouraged to excel in the class. It's a win-win... unless of course you hate public education, then it doesn't matter what we do, you'll always find fault.

My high school was doing that for many years when I went there- I graduated in 2010. It worked fine. Just never lower the standards.

Also, at my school they eventually did not have enough Advanced classes to meet the demand because of English as a Second Language classes. Instead of cutting elsewhere, they cut Advanced Placement classes :/

No need, they already got sent ahead to College.

At least blacks are only 12%. I'm fine with world ruled by whites and Hispanics.

Come on, man. You know those Hispanic girls are hot.

Yes, I believe schools must give the opportunity to all students who want to procede, go to college, uni etc to achieve it, especially if they lack family support, funds etc. But they have to prove that they deserve it to be there, study hard etc.

That's a shame. I know that ESL students can be a strong drain of resources in schools. In one of our district schools we've been able to get our immigrant students into AP classes in their senior year, but we're happy to be able to get them there. Other students start as early as sophomore year and special programs in freshman year.
We also have IB which is an awesome program.

Well they should make the children served up at "pizza parties" also meat a "skin color quota".

It's about time to fix the white bias in intelligence tests and grading in schools. People of color need their won honors programs to avoid the white bias.

I love this! Carry it to it's logical conclusion!

NBA must be racist because the teams do not represent the racial makeup of the cities they are in!

Let's see someone push that meme!


Hahahahahaha

they will likely take the white places instead, so they are SOL.

IF it can all be cleaned up, so much "scholarship" will have to be re-performed.

What a waste of time and brain power.

No wonder that we never cured cancer (yeah, that was the promise for giving them THEIR country).

Take a good look at south africa and rhodesia.

That's where the nouveau riche social scientists want the u.s. to be.

All because of the majic word: bias.

As though none of them aren't.

Let's call them the name they threw our: hypocrites!

Musta read it in an everyman's library cliff notes.

Totally made-up Marxist narrative.
