Elite San Francisco School Nixes Merit-Based Admission

Students and faculty at majority-minority Lowell High School claim current system is racist

By: Washington Free Beacon, February 11, 2021:

The San Francisco Board of Education voted late Tuesday to abandon the merit-based admissions process at a prestigious public high school after students, faculty, and others claimed the system perpetuates white supremacy.

Lowell High School—a public school within the San Francisco Unified School District often ranked among the nation’s best high schoolswill now admit students through a lottery, rather than choosing students with the best grades and test scores.

The school board’s resolution alleges that the admissions process at Lowell “perpetuates the culture of white supremacy and racial abuse towards black and Latinx students” and calls on the district to conduct an audit of racist incidents and create antiracist training programs for students.

While students of color currently make up more than 75 percent of the student body, Lowell is often critiqued for lacking diversity. More than half of students are Asian, less than 2 percent are black, and less than 12 percent are Latino.

Like many schools across the country, Lowell High School paused its merit-based admissions process last fall after the coronavirus pandemic interrupted admissions tests, much to the chagrin of Lowell parents and alumni. Families of high-achieving students in San Francisco view the selective, academically rigorous school as a more economical alternative to private schooling, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

Rather than dismantling the current enrollment system at Lowell, critics of the resolution—including students who spoke at the board meeting Tuesday night—suggest that the school district should do more to assist black and Latino students at the elementary and middle school levels.

“If the board wants to fight racism and truly believes that ‘all SFUSD high schools are academic schools,’ then simply put more resources into all the other high schools,” Lowell High School alum Emil Guillermo wrote in the Chronicle. “Don’t lower the bar at Lowell. Raise the bar at the neighborhood schools and make them all shine.”

Lowell is the only high school in the San Francisco Unified School District that uses a merit-based admissions process. The school board’s resolution claims California law prohibits public high schools from enrolling students based on grades.

The school’s Black Student Union has for years spoken out against an allegedly exclusive and discriminatory culture at Lowell. Last week, members of the group protested against a racist incident that occurred during an online antiracist training session last month. Hackers, who some believe could have been students, posted racial slurs aimed at black and Jewish students, as well as pornographic images, on an online conversation board.

Neither the San Francisco Unified School District nor the school board responded to the Washington Free Beacon’s request for comment in time for publication.

[the_ad id=”110283″]

Last week’s resolution came alongside the district’s decision to change the names of 44 San Francisco public schools named after historical figures now deemed problematic. Schools named after presidents George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln will be renamed. Critics objected to the district’s reasons for renaming 3 of those 44 schools: Paul Revere Preparatory School, James Lick Middle School, and Lowell High School.

Lowell is the latest elite American high school to abandon merit-based admissions in favor of processes that can be used to achieve racial quotas. Last fall, the Fairfax County Public Schools Board in Virginia eliminated the entrance test for the Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology in an effort to boost black and Latino enrollment numbers

My nephew 8 or 9 and I @ 12 yrs were mugged by a gang of 5 black inner city youths.

In a much forested State Park -which in the follow up by the church groups leader a black Christian man named Howard – I learned of the mutual animousity of whites and blacks gangs in the inner city’s.
He was trying to change this by volunteering with his church busing black inner city youths to see and experience the natural beauty of rural areas.
When they were confronted broke down and cried as we boys all shook hands as they told us at home “they’d be mugged by white honkey’s if caught alone” = was sadly a way of life there.
It caused me then as a boy to be against all racism knowing its learned behaviour that must be unlearned as we’re all potentially God’s children.
ayeah I realize several here had bad experiences and it shows = why I shared mine tho wasn’t a daily life only a onetime ocurrence…!

There’s a black gang in Palm Springs of all places called the Gateway Posse Crips. They gunned down a Nigerian (I believe) Christian who had recently received a degree in nursing and passed his medical boards for same. No one ever found out who killed him or why. It’s incredible that the town that Frank Sinatra, Liberace, Dinah Shore, Lucille Ball, Arnold Palmer, Andy Williams, Jack Webb and Leonard DiCaprio called (and in the last case call) home now has established street gangs.

This outrage is the work of democrats accommodating the anti-White & Anti-Asian animus of blacks even though many blacks would benefit, just not proportionally many. There’s no other motivation since in no way does providing a White or East Asian gifted student his or her best opportunity to realize their potential hurt any blacks. It’s just black racial spite.

In academia, Asians are the new Jews. Years ago, Ivy League colleges discriminated against highly qualified Jewish applicants by creating quotas. This is the modern equivalent.

There’s a rather large generational divide. I know quite a few families of East Asian descent. The parents and grandparents are overwhelmingly conservative and vote so. This year, I witnessed a few heated arguments between them and their college aged children/grandchildren.

Unless you’re speaking of Southeast Asians (perhaps) and those from the Southern Subcontinent … of those forty(plus) of East Asian descent, I don’t know any, not too many …. but ANY, that vote for left wingnut regressives.

Do you know a large number of East Asian Americans? Perhaps, I’m dealing with a limited number.

Everyone must be a cog on a wheel. No exceptions. Hold the achievers back and demoralize them. Sideline the achievers and praise the non achievers. That’s what they do to level kids down. If the achiever doesn’t have the will power to keep on achieving, they will level themselves down to the rest.

No, it’s not “enjoying” dogs. Rather, you are a white supremacist if you do not brutally mistreat animals.

And, it’s not simply schools of veterinarian medicine … look at admissions regarding even undergraduate acceptance. Think about being of East Asian descent and having to score OVER 400 points higher on the SAT (test only has 1600 points) than a negro applicant, just to be considered “equal”. Are negroes actually THAT stupid? Seems that university and colleges believe that they are.

All that it really boils down to is that negroes are too stupid to compete fairly. And, that they need government backing for their very existence.

But, as far as “minorities” go … are Americans of East Asian descent now a majority of the population?

It’s not majority v minority, it’s anything smarter than a negro (like 100% of any other group) being held down, due to the systemic racism of the elite that favors the inferior negro.

I used to know a Christian guy from Eritrea who was studying for his masters in EE. He had experienced islamic persecution in Eritrea first hand (his Christian uncle was gunned down in broad daylight by muslum thugs and the “investigation” into the murder by the local muslum law enforcement didn’t rise much above a shrug of indifference). Anyway, he once told me: “don’t confuse their culture with MY culture.” I also met a really nice, lovely and devout Christian woman from Jamaica. She in no way subscribed to the hip-hop culture or the YOLO morality.

I guarantee you. if Dr. Ben Carson used hair spray, he would never make that mistake and look how he is shunned. He is shunned for being an accomplished black man and being a Christian. The dumber and more easily manipulated you are, the more they like you for the moment.

White people seem to be the new Jews in the U.S. … they want us gone. Whites are a minority population worldwide so elsewhere they are busily eliminating Christians, It is Christians that are the most persecuted and slaughtered faith on this earth. They don’t like Jews either but they don’t tend to live in third world countries and the majority of them are liberal in the U.S..

People like Omar push hatred on Jews and Christians and in time they will find a way to ban and silence serious Jews and Christians. Communism doesn’t allow this. Ask someone from China about that.

Muslims never promote fair play or justice and most seem incapable of objectivity or impartiality, so promote Islam’s injustice and prejudices.
A glaring example of this is the head prosector of the International Criminal Court, Fatou Bensouda. She’s Muslim, from the failed, poverty-stricken black African country, Gambia, all too aware of white Western success and influence, all too aware of Israel’s success and Gambia’s failure, hence has a chip on her shoulder along with usual Muslim hatred of Jews and Israel, yet is the head ICC prosecutor where she is happy to abuse her position in order to make life difficult for Israel. The now cowardly Western world has abdicated pursuit of leadership in international organizations and in any event is now outnumbered by the stupid Muslim and black Third World, so what we are getting is increasing injustice and stupidity. And of this I am not intended to be contemptuous?

Sent-Down Youth

As part of Mao’s “up to the mountains and down to the villages” campaign, initiated in 1968 to quell civil unrest during the Cultural Revolution, all urban 16-year-olds were commanded to travel to rural villages to be schooled in hard agricultural labor. More than 20 million teenagers were sent to work in the countryside, often devoting more than a decade of their lives to farm labor. Not only did this deprive them of a formal education, but parting from their families was a heart-wrenching experience for most of the youngsters.

Woman Who Ingested Fish Tank Cleaner Is Prolific Donor to Democratic Causes
Arizona woman who accidentally poisoned her husband donated to ‘pro-science resistance’ PAC, among others

By Alana Goodman
3/20/20

The Arizona woman who said that she and her 68-year-old husband ingested a substance used to clean fish tanks after hearing President Donald Trump tout chloroquine as a cure for the coronavirus has given thousands of dollars to Democratic groups and candidates over the last two years.

The woman’s most recent donations, in late February, were to a Democratic PAC, the 314 Action Fund, that bills itself as the “pro-science resistance” and has vocally criticized the Trump administration’s response to the coronavirus pandemic and held up her case to slam the White House.

MAJOR KABALISTIC LEADER PREDICTS STAR OF JACOB AS EARLY AS ADAR (FEB 12-MARCH 13)

A star rises from Yaakov, A scepter comes forth from Yisrael; It smashes the brow of Moab, The foundation of all children of Shet. Numbers 24:17 (The Israel BibleTM)
A recent video claimed that a major Hasidic leader in Jerusalem stated that the prophesied Star of Jacob, referred to in some circles as Nibiru, will begin to affect the Earth as of this week.
REBBE OF LELOV: NIBIRU WILL BEGIN IN THE MONTH OF ADAR
A video published on Tuesday presented a Hebrew-language audio of an anonymous man who claimed to have heard directly from Rabbi Yaakov Yitzchak Biderman, the current Grand Rabbi of the Lelov sect of Hasidic Judaism based in Jerusalem, confirming the predictions made by Yuval Ovadia, an Israeli filmmaker who has made several award-winning films on the subject of Nibiru and Planet X.

“The rebbe said that we should start seeing the effects of the star even as early as the beginning of the Hebrew month of Adar,” the video stated.
The month of Adar begins at sunset on Thursday, February 12. Ironically, Jews are commanded to increase their joy in the month of Adar as the holiday of Purim, an especially festive celebration, falls on the 14th of the month. That will be the evening of Thursday, February 25.
“After Rosh Chodesh (the beginning of the new month), many things will begin to happen in the world. The arrival of the star will be only one of them.”
OVADIA: “IT IS ALL WRITTEN IN JEWISH SOURCES”
Yuval Ovadia was greatly appreciative of the rabbi’s affirmation.
“It is very reassuring to hear that a highly-respected saintly rebbe acknowledges my work,” Ovadia told Israel365 News. “Religious Jews should pay heed since, after all, I only bring Jewish sources to back-up my conclusions. Unfortunately, even people of faith will not believe sometimes don’t believe until after it happens.”
Yuval emphasized that he has never predicted a precise date for the arrival of Nibiru…..

…“I am not a prophet nor am I on the spiritual level of the rebbe, but there is a source that suggests a specific timeline,” Ovadia noted, citing the Zohar.
After forty days, when the pillar rises from earth to heaven in the eyes of the whole world and the Messiah has appeared, a star will rise up on the east, blazing in all colors, and seven other stars will surround that star. And they will wage war on it.
“We know that the final redemption will be patterned after the Exodus from Egypt,” Ovadia reasoned. “The Exodus took place of Pesach (the holiday of Passover) which falls on the 15th of Nisan. 40 days before that is when the pillar of fire is supposed to appear and that is approximately Rosh Chodesh Adar. It could be this year or any year after that but the sources seem to suggest these dates.”
Ovadia noted that the Bible contains a prophecy of a star signaling the arrival of the Jewish Messiah.
I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not nigh; there shall step forth a star out of Yakov, and a scepter shall rise out of Yisrael, and shall smite through the corners of Moab, and break down all the sons of Seth. Numbers 24:17
Rabbi Moses ben Maimon, known by the acronym Rambam, the foremost Torah authority of the 12th century whose rulings are still used as the basis for much of Jewish law, cited this verse about the Star of Jacob as proof of the Messiah, emphasizing that it will come from Jacob, i.e. the tribe of Judah and his descendants the Jews, and not Esau or Edom. …

…The appearance of this pre-Messianic star is predicted to be catastrophic, accompanied by extreme natural disasters. The Vilna Gaon, an 18th-century Jewish scholar, stated that the power of this star system could destroy the world. Ovadia explained that this may not be caused by the star colliding with the Earth but rather by God exerting his influence on global weather events via the star.
2,000 years ago, the Zohar, the foundational work of Jewish mysticism, predicted the appearance of a star with seven ‘stars’ orbiting it.
“Jewish sources say that this astrological phenomenon is a necessary part of the geula (redemption),” Ovadia said. He explained that if the star does not appear, then any claim that the Messiah has arrived will be rejected by Judaism.
He pointed to an example: 400 years ago, Rabbi Yaakov Sasportes used the absence of a new star as an argument against Shabbetai Tzvi, a Jew who falsely claimed to be the Messiah.

This is almost laughable! So don’t be white or Asian, intelligent and motivated, it’s ‘racist’ and ‘supremacist’, be black or Latino, unintelligent, lazy and unmotivated, and you’ll be accepted. The more stupid you are the better! Sorry Americans, but by the actions of the really stupid left your country is now an idiotic ‘shit-hole’ with California leading the charge toward total mediocrity. No wonder Elon Musk left California. At this rate he’ll be wondering why he left South Africa for now insane America. I’d love to know what these black students regard as ‘racist’. Them getting lousy grades?

Thanks to LBJ + Congress destroying the black American family home life.

Mostly homes with true Christian values raised aware and engaged children that were serious about the needed relevant basics.

Where Dr. Ben Carson + Charlse Payne’s Saintly diligent mother’s held the line bringing their children inline to succeed by merely following the basics of reading well and having to bring home good grades being held to due diligence from a Godly homelife.

* Same as my own Saintly mother did in reading esp thru the Bible which opened up worlds beyond what I could see around me…!

Sonya Carson decided to take matters into her own hands by switching off the television. Ben and Curtis were allowed to watch only two programs a week, and their mother made them read two books each week from the Detroit Public Library. The boys were also required to write book reports, which Sonya would underline and mark up. Only later did Ben Carson realize his mother, who had left school after the third grade, was barely able to read. “She pulled a fast one on us,” Carson told David Gergen of PBS, “but after a while, something happened.
* I began to actually enjoy reading the books…. I could go anywhere in the world, be anybody, do anything. You know my imagination began to run wild.” Within a year-and-a-half Carson went from the bottom of his class to the top of his class.

Carson Scholars
In 1994 Ben Carson and his wife, Candy, established the Carson Scholars Fund. Carson noticed that schools honored athletes with trophies and pep rallies, but that academic achievement often went unnoticed. He also wanted to encourage students to explore the fields of science and technology. According to the fund’s Web site (http://www.carsonscholars.org), the goal of the nonprofit organization is to “to help our children stay competitive in science, math, and technology, as well as balance academic achievement with the high esteem our society gives to sports and entertainment.

Each year, scholarships of $1,000 are awarded to students in grades four through twelve who achieve a grade point average of at least 3.75, and who show a true commitment to their community. Scholarships are presented at an awards banquet where winners are also given certificates and medals.

12 of the students are Latino, which is proportional to their population, which is 12% lol

Wait, did they just admit by that that white people are smarter? Or are they actually afraid that that might be the case, that white kids might be smarter then the rest of them, so they are going to have a rigged lottery now, try and keep the white kids out?

This school is now destined for utter failure. Democrats love to create slaves, and this is but another way of doing so. “Dumb everyone down and let the tyrants rule” is the new motto of the Democrat Party. I suspect that a lot of hard working folks will abandon these racially indoctrinated schools – and San Francisco will just become a bigger slum.

They should be doing the same thing with the faculty – a lottery. Then, by chance you will have the best school in the world; just like winning the lottery. So woke, they broke.

More than half the students are Asian, so why are we surprised, or not. Asian young people are motivated and hard working. This soon will not be such an elite school. BTW getting into college and university in Asian countries including China is very competitive, the students are under a lot of pressure. No lottery admission there folks. So this school is going in the wrong direction. I am not against young people from disadvantaged backgrounds being given opportunity but lotteries are not the way to get there

Without merit, it will be a connections based admissions system. Merit is the only thing that allows those who don’t have power and connections to have an advantage over those who do.

Well said!

*** You and yours have an excellent week, reyol!

P.S. … making sure those without power and connections do not have an advantage over those who do … is the whole object of doing away with any merit based system is it not? That’s the implication. 😉
