[quote=Anonymous]We've sent our white child to schools that are 1%-5% white. Everything has been fine. Some here may see something when I state further that these schools in the northern-central part of the city are majority Latino. Everyone wants to just put their kids in school and not have to worry that they're going to get taught well and be secure in being themselves. The trouble is that while we want a better world for our kids they live in the one we've got. So, sure, you're right to feel insecure about being an extreme minority in a school community. But that doesn't automatically mean you can't make a go of it. It's not the American norm, but I for one want to keep trying to do better. If no one works at integration, we've seen it'll never happen. But nobody said you have to be part of that. I hope you find what you need wherever you decide to send your kids.[/quote]
