It does need middle school seats. You are “solving” a non-existent problem. [/quote]
The problem is the unfairness and segregation of HB.  It doesn't make sense in a public system.[/quote]

If you're worried about segregration, you should be a lot more worried about the neighborhood schools.

But that's not your issue is it - you just want to find a reason to hate on HB. Just because your kid didn't get in doesn't mean it's not fair. [/quote]

I love how HB parents keep complaining about the demographics of neighborhood schools, when HB is literally the least diverse and most white school[/quote]

No it's not. [/quote]

Yes it is, as well as lowest FARMS secondary school

ure, it may have more students of color than lily white Jamestown, but HBW has few POC than Yorktown.

The FARMS ratio is the real cherry on top,

well now you added a new criteria if you just look at high schools. Now do middle and elementary schools too. [/quote]

There are no elementary schools which are 1/4 the size of the other elementary school schools but nice try[/quote]

We're talking FARMS and diversity numbers, remember? There are many schools in APS worse than HB on those metrics. But you want to cherry pick. [/quote]

More high schools? Talk about effing cherry picking.[/quote]

Calm down, take a breath. And then use those reading comprehension skills. Now pull up middle and elementary schools. If you even know where to find that, since you pulled the wrong data already. [/quote]

Yes, I knew you were talking about elementary schools, but this discussion is about high schools. If HB was a elementary school, then we would discuss it.[/quote]

You said HB is the whitest school in APS, but we all know it's not. You just don't want to look at the schools that are whiter.

Also strange that you just want to look at high schools when HB is both a High and a Middle school. But you do you. [/quote]
