The letter the 17 school principles sent out apologizing was exactly the same. Three different counties, 17 schools. Same verbiage in the letter??? 
One official in the Fairfax County Superintendents office was quoted as saying they didn’t notify students and parents because they didn’t want to embarrass students who did not qualify for the awards. 
Equal outcome for everyone 

About 75% of semifinalists for the National Merit award that were not notified were Asian students, the Fairfax County Times reported. At Marshall High School, the latest school to admit to withholding the merit award from students, 71% of students who earned the recognition were minorities, with most being Asian.

Thomas Jefferson school of Technology has already acknowledged that they limit how many Asian student they’ll admin each year. They said they had to many Asians and not enough blacks students .
So they made the qualifications for Asians more difficult and the qualifications for blacks easier. ………….… 

equal outcome = racism
