[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the issue?  APS is eliminating opportunity gaps and providing equitable access (even equitable access) :

https://www.apsva.us/arlington-public-schools-overview/

[b] Equity: Eliminate opportunity gaps and achieve excellence by providing access to schools, resources, and learning opportunities according to each student’s unique needs.[/b]

https://www.apsva.us/instruction/

[b]Our Mission: To ignite a passion for learning with equitable access and multiple pathways [b]where learners connect,[/b] create, and innovate[/b]

Here's the issue.  They'll do anything but allow the children to "connect" with others at another school different from them.  "Separate but equitable" isn't anything different from "separate but equal."[/quote]

No one is being separated by race or gender. The fact is, some areas have a high cost of living, and others less so. People live where they can afford.

I’d love a huge home in Georgetown, but can’t afford it. [b]Are you saying that I should be entitled to housing there ([/b]as well as a fancy luxury car and funds for private school)? [/quote]

Yes.  There is a huge affordable housing group that is saying just that. [/quote]
