[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm getting really tired of posters making a huge point about how they value "diversity" and then in the VERY next sentence go on and on how[b] there is a large enough high SES peer cohort at their diverse school with 20%-50% so their kids don't need to mix with the low income kids.[/b] This comes up constantly here. What is the point of choosing a diverse school if you don't want your kids be friends and mix into classes with the low SES kids? If you were only seeking a cheaper house in a more affordable area and then were pleasantly surprised that your kids got to avoid the poor kids in school, well then OK, at least own it. Don't go on about wanting diversity and in the next breath contradict yourself. [/quote] It's not "SES peer cohort".. it's "academic peer cohort" which doesn't mean that they are all not low income. Calm down. You're making a big stink out of nothing.[/quote]
