> The fact that we get any Black students in under-resourced neighborhoods testing within 100 points of White students, who have been prepping for the test since the eighth grade, that is a miracle of over-performance

That is disgustingly, outrageously racist.

Could you elaborate?
Not the poster, but the implication is that all white students are highly privileged in well resourced school districts. It's not technically what was said, but I agree the implication is pretty strong and unreasonable. You can have other readings ofc.

Honestly the boundary between race/money/class/privilege is a pretty rough space to hang around.
