[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This article reminded me of this thread... "We’re asking parents to make choices that are often against the mainstream idea of what a good parent does—that is, getting every last thing for your kid. And it’s an awkward, difficult conversation. The lack of resources for students of color and low-income students is real, and we’re asking people to invest in all kids and not just their own." [/quote] I find it really strange that people automatically lump in "students of color" with low-income students. Of course the lack of resources for low-income students may be less than the extra resources provided by wealthy parents. But I have trouble understanding what lack of resources black students have. If anything, doesn't DCPS provide additional resources for students of color? I mean, isn't there a whole program that DCPS established?[/quote]
