The prep schools are used to the exclusive goal of getting Asian Students into Stuyvesant High School?No. When I was working and out at an early hour, I'd frequently see a private school bus taking kids to the Bronx High School of Science. Indeed, there was a special NYCT bus run from Flushing to the Bronx Science, before the recent service cuts. The inference is that the prep schools were there for those who aspired entrance to other schools. Did you survey... My anecdotal observations regarding Asian students suddenly appearing during a prep school lunch break, was to answer your assertion: Prove that Asians attend prep classes. The prep schools are used. There are many of them. They were not there before the Asian influx into Flushing. I don't need a survey to answer whether or not they are used. I might need one to determine the percentage of Asians who use them. That's not where your initial comment was leading. |
