Boston s interim exam-school admission plan deserves a shot

Bostonâs interim exam-school admission plan deserves a shot Reform to the elite schoolsâ admissions system has been long overdue. By The Editorial BoardUpdated April 14, 2021, 4:00 a.m. Email to a Friend Boston Latin Academy.David L. Ryan/Globe Staff The temporary pause of the controversial test that helps determine entry into Bostonâs three top-rated public exam schools was celebrated in the fall as a potential sign of good things to come. Because the pandemic made it challenging to administer the test, here was an opportunity to experiment with an alternative admissions formula that could finally make the student body at the exam schools, particularly Boston Latin School, more representative of Bostonâs population as a whole.

Lawyers Debate Motivations Behind Boston Exam School Changes

Lawyers Debate Motivations Behind Boston Exam School Changes Boston Latin School Share Lawyers for a parent group and the Boston School Committee differed Tuesday on the motivations behind temporary changes in admissions to the city s exam schools. A representative of white and Asian parents argued the plan was racially motivated, while the committee s counsel cited the pandemic and several diversity goals. The arguments came in a federal lawsuit filed by Boston Parent Coalition for Academic Excellence that contends the admissions plan for this year discriminates against white and Asian applicants in some neighborhoods. Because COVID-19 prevented the administering of an admissions test, the school committee last fall adopted a plan for this year to use grades received before the pandemic and zip codes to select students for Boston Latin School, Boston Latin Academy and the John D. O Bryant School of Mathematics and Science.
