Racial Disparity in Standardized Testing

Public project summary

The city of Palo Alto embodies an environment where a lot of privilege exists. Palo Alto is a place where there are a plethora of tutors offered, education is a priority for all, and everyone has the chance to take standardized tests, like the ACT and SAT. However, there is a problem with standardized testing, specifically the racial disparity that occurs within it. My project explores the different factors that cause this disparity, and the efforts that have been implemented to close the gap today.
