Yes, if I were the people trying to achieve school diversity, then I would focus on neighborhood.

But if other people focus on other things, e.g. reducing global warming (which you may consider irrelevant, so do I),  as long as the approach itself is not bad, and it does not spend public money, I have no objection - I just wouldn't do it that way myself.

"busing students from outside" is against the current rules, and it is against my principle of schools taking students from its neighborhood. I think I've made that clear enough.

I understand that some people do not have this "schools should take students from the neighborhood" principle. Then we have found our differences.

Rules can be changed.

What is the reason for your principle that schools should take students only from the local neighborhood?[/quote]

Already stated in the PP. And isn't that obvious? Any other rules that you think would work better than this (other than merit based schools)? Schools with racial quota? Remember, we are talking about rules, that is something that can be followed with very little personal choices from the administrators. Things like "we should make the school diverse" are not rules. They are slogans.

No, it's not obvious. That's why I'm asking. [/quote]
