[quote=Anonymous]I'd like to get to a point where we think of all of them as "our kids," instead of "our kids" and "those other kids." I went to an event at our school last night full of parents and kids of all colors and backgrounds and socioeconomic levels and we all had a fantastic time. We are different in many ways but we all love and celebrate all our kids. When you can get a great education at either an all-rich, nearly all white school or a mixed school, I see why I'd choose the mixed school. Everyone has to consider their own specific options. But I'm really shocked to hear people equate schools with many black or Hispanic kids to dangerous, failing schools. Will you do the same analysis of colleges? Will you research what percentage of kids are black or Hispanic before selecting a college? If you say "well duh, if they can get into that college they must be one of the good ones," then wake up: great kids come in all colors, even in high school.[/quote]
