[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]So from what I'm reading everyone will just sacrifice the quality of education their children receive for diversity.

[/b]I read a thread recently where someone said they requested to be in a lower rated school instead of the highly rated school they were zoned for so that there would be more diversity.

This is the craziest thing I have heard in a while. So do your children not see any people of different color, religion, SES, country of origin etc... At any sports? Your ? (maybe going to private), the grocery store, life in general?

I would never sacrifice my child's quality of education for anything. They have plenty of friends who are different because they don't go to school 24 hours a day 7 days a week.

Honestly what am I missing here? My children's education is one of the most important things to our family, I can't imagine not caring about the learning my children receive because I care more about the type of kids in the class.

I wonder what OP has been reading. I've never read anything where somebody said, "I will sacrifice the quality of education my child will receive for diversity!"

Now, people do sometimes choose schools with lower GreatSchools ratings. And maybe OP assumes that GreatSchools ratings correlate with the quality of education a child receives. If so, I disagree with that assumption.
