[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is very simple and they don't want to do it because it would make the school system way more segregated than it already is, there would be so much blowback politically. This should be obvious to you.[/quote] But there are set aside seats for at-risk students and Bancroft and Shepherd are diverse enough to not give off a segregation feel. [/quote] DCPS has to plan for the long term and Bancroft and Shepherd may become less diverse. And it would make Wilson less diverse overall. [b]It may be that the OOB population at Bancroft and Shepherd is more diverse than the IB population[/b], I don't know. Bottom line, you might be okay with the school system becoming more segregated but DCPS and the Mayor clearly are not.[/quote] The question is which way is it trending. I imagine IB vs. OOB are pretty close in terms of diversity at Shepherd— I know several white OOB families.[/quote][/quote]
