BTSN: I fricking LOVE Langley

[Anonymous]

So impressed with all of the teachers.

There have been a few duds over the years but having sent several children, I have been overall VERY happy.

Above and beyond the teachers, the clubs and activities, and sports have made high school fun and productive.

Hail Saxons!

Langley is 53.5% White but you already knew that, oh I forgot, acceptable diversity is only black kids.

Don’t forget that Middle Eastern families self identify as White. Like JMHS, numbers are skewed and inaccurate. Langley is quite diverse but not the gold standard diversity that apparently to you PPs includes only Black students.

To be fair, it could be considered closer to 60% since it is safe to assume the 7% classified as "two or more" races are assuredly White/Asian.

NP. The diversity I really care about is economic diversity. Of which I'm quite certain Langley has about zero, thanks in part to creatively drawn school boundaries. I think it's disgusting that our public schools are so completely separated into "rich schools" and "poor schools". It starts with housing policies and zoning laws, but then the school boundaries reinforce and exaggerate the divide.

Diversity means reasonable representation of all groups. Langley is dominated by two of the four tracked ethnicities. The other two are extremely underrepresented relative to the county as a whole. That's not diverse.

And yes, I'd also say that a school is not diverse if >90% of the students are Hispanic and Black, with only a few Asian and White students. Or >90% White and Hispanic.

Those boundaries were drawn many years ago. Demographics change, but redrawing boundaries is disruptive to many families and students--especially when a school is not over capacity.
