[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is natural for anyone- don't you want your kid to go to a school where there's a sizable population of kids of their same race? All things being equal? I think any parent - black, white, etc., would choose that.[/quote] Good point. You're not a racist for not wanting your child to be a "lonely only." If only 10% of the school is your child's race, then in a class of 18 students, there's only 8/10ths of another child that looks like him. Meanwhile, as everyone on DCUM knows, KIPP is supposed to have good test scores, but it's also a "drill and kill." In fact, most of the majority minority schools with good scores are "drill and kills" and upper SES families don't want that. [/quote]
