[quote=Anonymous]Flagrant racism and classicism, my foot. Unfortunately, there isn't much of a middle ground in public schools in this city. Most of the students are either low-income Latinos and AA, or upper middle-class whites. The two groups don't mix all that well in public school classrooms after 1st or 2nd grade for a host of reasons. The bridge group - upper middle-class A professional, mostly bailed to the burbs in the 70s and 80s. Parents do their best to make sense of the situation, cope and strategize. Give 'em a break.
