TY @DrIbram for your letter. SFUSD voted last Tuesday to suspend the regular admissions policy based on essay, exam and GPA due to similar concerns for COVID. Yet unlike BPS we will allow any student to apply via the general lottery.
As you can imagine, this was met with controversy and online harassment and targeting of me and @lopez4schools the Black and a Latinx female Commissioners and a Black female representative to the Board who is also a Lowell student.
I would welcome conversation with other Black educators on selective enrollment public schools. Like Boston Latin, Lowell has a long fraught history with underrepresentation and racism. Does anyone remember #BlackatBSU?
