[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With no public transit to a school located in a lily white, UMC enclave this should be a very diverse school. [/quote] You are mistaking NW with the Mid-West US of the 1950s.[/quote] Ward 3 is 80% white. 6% black.[/quote] Not according to this site. https://censusreporter.org/profiles/61000US11003-ward-3-dc/[/quote] NP but come on that site says Ward 3 as a whole is 8% black. I would guess that the area zoned for MacArthur is probably less than 8%, but even if it is that’s 8% black compared to a city that is 45% black and a school district that is 80% black at least. That is pretty lily white.[/quote] You are living in the past. DCPS is 56% black this year, per the OSSE enrollment audit, and 17% white. Yes, MacArthur is unlikely to replicate the citywide proportions. None of the neighborhood high schools do. But it’s not as disproportionate as you think.[/quote]
