[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm glad they are finally addressing the false claim that options schools help poorer neighborhoods. In areas with a lot of families qualifying for FRL, it's not the more needy families applying to ATS, it's the ones with more means. Thank you, LS, for saying that publicly. [/quote] I agree and disagree with that. I don’t think the answer to SA’s schools is to keep putting option schools there to entice the Middle and UMC. That doesn’t solve anything and creates more problems. On the other hand, take away even the possibility of lucking into an option school, middle class families would be less likely to buy and rent in those more vulnerable neighborhoods, and the cycle of poverty and segregation continues.
