New York City to change many selective schools to address segregation

  New York City is changing its admission system for hundreds of middle and high schools, officials said Friday in announcing one of the most significant steps the nation s largest school system has taken in years to address racial segregation. Mayor Bill de Blasio said the city is suspending academic merit-based screening for its selective middle schools for at least a year, partly because the coronavirus pandemic has scrambled test, attendance and grading data that the schools have used to grant admission to top-performing elementary school kids. It wouldn t be fair for schools to rely on two-year-old data about children so young, Schools Chancellor Richard Carranza said. Instead, a lottery would be used when schools have more applicants than available seats.
