          Mr. King my daughter is Spanish and Black an she took the SHSAT got one of the highest scores in her class an did not get in any of the Specialized schools. But the Asian kids in her school got in with lower scores than she got. The system is rigged......

          Replying to @xkhdc @RE2PECTNYC and

          It technically depends which specialized schools they each put down. If the Asian kid put down a school with a lower cutoff score, even if their score was lower, they’d get in.

          That's not how the process works, the shsat scores are listed in numerical order and then the people with the highest scores get their first choices and it keeps going like that

          .@shaunking, it's disgraceful. Can you spread the word about how the #NYCDOE is currently systemically denying NYC black and brown children K-8 District Gifted and Talented programs which are a pipeline to these specialized high schools? @SquarePegDemhttps://twitter.com/DoEcorruption/status/1096120432175054848 …
