[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of it is because a lot of "woke" parents get to claim their "urban city" school without actually having very much diversity at least economically. [/quote]

65% black, 21% white, 26% at risk. At risk means "qualify for Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), have been identified as homeless during the academic year, who under the care of the Child and Family Services Agency (CFSA or “foster care”),"And it's not like the 74% who are not at risk are all from high income/education families. Not at risk includes plenty of working class families. That seems pretty diverse to me.

Can you imagine what the reaction would be in a Fairfax County or Arlington school if they announced that their kids would be rezoned into a school with 26% at risk students and 70% black or hispanic?[/quote]

Forget Fairfax or Arlinton - imagine the reaction at Janney/Mann/Lafayette etc.[/quote]
