[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]High performing schools have more high performing students than low performing schools. Yes, this is obvious. There are some high performing and many more average performing students in low performing schools. The affluent ones all segregate within the school into a different set of classes than the ones the attended by the poor students. The diversity experience goes out the window because the kids are not being friends with other kids who have a very a different lifestyle than they do. They aren't studying together or taking the same classes. [/quote] Clubs, sports, PE, electives aren't segregated. Kids who have similar interests and values will hang out with each other. I went to a diverse school and I hung out with lots of girls on the cheer squad as I was on it, and kids on the football and basketball teams. It was a diverse group of friends and most of us were middle class, but some were wealthy, and others were low income. No one gave a crap how much our parents made.[/quote]
