[quote=Anonymous]I am of the belief that it is not always the entire school.  Often times there are a few teachers that have problem with the AA children.  They plant the seed and get other teachers and administration to buy in. My child had a teacher like this and it is a hard battle, but there are  organizations out there that have experience handing these issues and will assist you if you need it. If matters escalate to that pont, it really looks bad for that particular school. Most schools are AIM certified and are supposed to train their staff on issues concerning diversity. Of course this does not always mean anything to some staff.  Schools that promote their diversity as a selling point for the school need to retain the students they accept.  If a school has a problem doing that, it looks bad for the school.  In my experience, AA parents do talk, not just at their at own school, but to other AA parents at other schools. After enough buzz it will get increasingly harder for some schools to attract the diversity.   [/quote]
