- Title
The Dilemma of Excellence and Diversity.
- Authors

- Abstract
During my three years as a new principal at The High School for Math, Science, and Engineering (HSMSE), one of New York City's eight specialized high schools, I found myself constantly wrestling with two challenges: maintaining the school's high academic standards and protecting the school's extraordinary diversity. Among the city's eight specialized high schools, HSMSE usually ranks 4th or 5th in the cut scores needed for acceptance based on a standardized admission exam.
