[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a very hot button topic. Shepherd Elementary School is very small. If SES got moved to another feeder pattern it really wouldn’t reduce the numbers at Deal. 50 kids is a drop in the bucket. But the Ward 3 parents and a group of parents (who I know) don’t like minorities which is why they want to remove SES. There are very active parents who are voicing their concerns with city council. I think removal from Deal/Wilson is unlikely in the next round.[/quote]

This is a huge generalization. Do you know all Ward 3 parents?[/quote]

NP. My kids are almost done with Wilson and we were a Lafayette family. The sentiments that PPP noted above are 100% accurate. It may be a minority of white parents that think this way, BUT THEY DO EXIST!! I witnessed it with my own eyes. As a URM family - it was disgusting and disheartening to think that you are in a community with people that think this way. It's not a generalization or overstatement.[/quote]

The PP said “Ward 3 parents” not a minority of Ward 3 parents. You are a Ward 3 parent. Do you dislike minorities?[/quote]

PP here. Ok, you’re right. A *large group* of Ward 3 parents.[/quote]
