We feel it is important to continue the practice of disaggregating data, so we make equity-based decisions. When we reviewed our disaggregated data it showed that our district is systemically meeting the instructional needs of both our Asian and White students and not meeting the instructional needs for our Black, Indigenous, Multi-racial, Pacific Islander and Latinx students. The intent was never to ignore Asian students as students of color or ignore any systemic disadvantages they too have faced. We continue to learn and grow in our work with equity as a public-school system and we will ensure that we learn from this and do better in the future.
Okay then, moving on.

It's bullshit if you come from a poor Asian family. The high performing Asians usually have successful parents to begin with. I still did well, but it was super handicapped bullshit.

I'd rather see more scholarships based on family income than ethnicity.

Makes sense when put in this context. Probably could have worded "Students of Color" better, though.

I often wonder if we are growing as a people... or in fact, regressing.

So setting aside the wording, it's weird to me that they can disaggregate asian from Pacific islander but stop there? Usually they're lumped together OR if they aren't I have usually seen more options than 'asian'

Seems Asians are doing so well they are skewering the results for the POC group so district thought it was better to group them with white people than have them with blacks/Hispanics. But they walking back a bit after getting called out.

I mean they could literally just keep the data disaggregated by race

Yeah, this was simply a thoughtless labeling issue. Change "People of Color" to "Non-Asian People of Color" and it's done.

Wtf no
It's really bad and weird to disaggregate the data by race and then reaggregate it in a different way

It's not just the wording that's problematic

Jmo at least

They're trying to separate "good" students from "in need" students I assume which is dumb af way of doing it. Just causes superiority complex and unnecessary racial tensions along with dividing people within that group.

Just outright say "students from good background" and "student from bad background" instead of jumping through hoops and bounds trying to be PC.

Then if Asians do well white parents move their kids to different schools because previous school was too competitive.
