[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The other thread was about why white families avoid all-black schools. All-black schools are not "integrated." They lack diversity.[/quote] 1. Their test scores won't be any lower. The federal government just released a report looking at the black-white achievement gap. It found something remarkable: "White student achievement in schools with the highest Black student density did not differ from White student achievement in schools with the lowest density." Translation: After controlling for socioeconomic status, [b]white students essentially had the same test scores whether they went to a school that was overwhelmingly white or one that was overwhelmingly black.[/b] You should actually read the article before commenting. [/quote] They controlled for SES and "other school, teacher and student characteristics". It's easy to put your thumb on the scale when doing this. [/quote]
