Your department head has told you that administration wants more diversity in honors and AP classes and that she will be checking recommendations to make sure that you are not only recommending white students. You begin to feel fearful that you will be labeled racist if you do not include more students of other races. However, you don't feel comfortable placing students in classes where they won't be successful for the sake of diversity. What would you do? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would simply make sure that I utilized the same baseline data to "score" all of my students on their qualifications to be recommended for AP/ Honors classes. I would not fear being labeled racist if I could provide measurable data to signify I used the same standards of measurement to assess all of my students.
