New York state Sen. John Liu pushes for return to merit-based high school admissions

Sen. John C. Liu (NY-D) has called on New York City’s Department of Education (DOE) to remove the city’s high school lottery-based admissions process and return to a system that “values diligence and achievement.”

In his letter addressed to DOE Chancellor David Banks on Friday, Liu requested that the DOE return to its previous admissions process that considered academic performance for students, calling the current lottery-based process “unpopular and ineffective.”

“The high school admissions process has been rife with uncertainty and confusion under the current system causing outrage during an already stressful time in families’ lives,” Liu said in a press release on Monday.

“The DOE must abandon this lottery as a relic of the pandemic, and reinstate an admissions system that values diligence and achievement,” he continued.

This will never fly with the Lefties/Demmies... they're all about skin color and equity. That's why some leftie schools are removing basic skills to graduate from HS and taking away failing grades. They all think black/brown can not achieve such high marks.

Merit-base should be the only criteria for everything...
