[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I am the OP of the previous "Alert" thread about busing. Thanks, I just signed the petition. [/quote] And to address some of the concerns that others may have as to my agenda - First, [b]I am not spreading disinformation[/b]. I have been on the PTA board of my children's school for many years, and hear a lot of information that doesn't trickle down immediately to the rest of the community. I wrote one post, the OP of the Alert thread. I make no claims beyond that. Second, I believe long-distance busing has more practical disadvantages (traffic gridlock, wasted time, pollution) than advantages (diversity and closing the gap). The disadvantages will be felt immediately. The achievement gap is an incredibly complex problem that cannot be solved by one measure. Injecting exaggerations, emotions and racism into the conversation is a distraction. [/quote] Yes, you are [/quote]
