[quote=Anonymous]Fortunately for you OP the question of DC school segregation, both charter, and public, has been researched often, most recently by the DC Policy Center. https://www.dcpolicycenter.org/publications/landscape-of-diversity-in-dc-public-schools/ What is usually found is that distance to school is a significant driver of school choice for all parents in the system. So, for the most part, people choose what they believe are the best yet closest options. Because the city itself is pretty segregated, so are our schools. Most charters have the same diversity problems as DCPS -- with a few notable exceptions, and thus closing them probably wouldn't change segregation that much. [/quote]
