[quote=Anonymous]My biggest problem with this letter is that "free and reduced lunch" percentage is constantly used as a shorthand / substitute for racial diversity. Free and reduced lunch and racial diversity aren't the same. Yorktown High school might only have 14% FARL, but the minority population is 35%, just to give one example. Doing this makes these schools look less diverse than they really are.[/quote]
