[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many assumptions here about WJ and BCC. Maybe if you looked closely, you would see they are highly diverse schools with many ESL and FARMS kids, as well as kids with special needs. Why create an us (DCC) vs them (Ws) mindset?[/quote] C'mon, anyone can look at the stats and see you're lying. They are both almost half-white, 10% or less EML, and 25% or less FARMS. All way off from MCPS district-wide averages. Or is that really what passes for diversity in your part of the county? [/quote] A school where no one racial group makes up more than half of the student body is actually diverse. It's not my problem if you use the word "diversity" as code for "not white." If you go to a school where 60% of students are in one group, even if that group is Black or Hispanic, that school is less diverse than a school where the largest group is 45% of the school. [/quote]
