[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I admit to being part of the problem. We live in S Arlington and have kids in the Immersion program. When the idea was raised to send half of Immersion to Williamsburg, we were up in arms. I really admire the academics there, but it's just way too far - especially juggling several kids at different school ages. And I was a little worried about some of the social problems at Williamsburg as well. Bottom line, I'd like to see the schools better integrated - but honestly don't want my kids bussed all the way to Williamsburg. [/quote] I don't think we've found anyone who wants THEIR kid to be bussed to Williamsburg. People want other people's brown and/or poor kids to be bussed to Williamsburg so that "the numbers look better.". You're not part of any problem.[/quote] Anyone who complains about lack of diversity in the schools but then protests their children being bused to achieve diversity *is* part of the problem. Don't put up a fight for something you're not willing to make any sacrifices to accomplish.[/quote]
