[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Diversity is key...if there's no white kids in the school then it is doomed. How come DCPS headquarters hasn't figured that out yet? We need an all out blitz to recruit white kids to DCPS....I am open up for ideas[/quote] This is technically true- but only because White kids tend to come from higher SES homes and be well "better" kids, since they tend to have received better parenting and live in more nourishing surroundings. [b]I find it incredible that DC has schools that almost 100% African American[/b]- what does that say to this community. We all know this is because the white/ hispanic parents will find another school if they possibly can. If we want to create a better city schools system we need to ensure no school is left behind, and that every group would consider each school. If a school is 100% African American, we need to change that STAT. Any ideas? [/quote] some areas of DC are 100% AA, so 100% students IB for schools in those areas are 100%. I volunteered once in an elementary school in Anacostia and the student population simply reflected the people who lived in the area of the school, 100% AA. [/quote]
