Any ideas? Genuinely asking.
Best immediate idea is to allow top % of students from each school admission.

We’ve endorsed that plan, which now appears to be dead in Albany. But New York politicians who don’t support it should come up with other bold ideas. Supporting the status quo isn’t acceptable here.

I agree. The whole system needs to be reimagined. Until then, urgent changes must be made.

It should be entirely based on the merits of testing. This is about empowering students that can handle accelerated and advanced course curriculum.

This would only be feasible if all the middle schools adequately prepared their students with the basics.

Terrible idea. Huge variability in education standards across the NYC middle school landscape. Top % in one school would be bottom % of another. You might as well turn SHS into regular neighborhood zone schools. The incoming students make the schools, not the other way around.

I would like to send you the comment I posted on the Stuyvesant High School page last year that comes from my experience going through gifted schools here and in Chicago, that can give you a pretty good view on the situation from the eyes of a black alumnus.

Horrible idea. Some middle schools will leave the kids unprepared setting them up for failure.
