[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Get rid of TJ and raise the standards at the neighborhood schools, and the hyper-focus on who is attending one magnet school goes away.[/quote] Look at every other school district in the country. They universally try to raise standards. Yet all this inequity remains. The problem isn't TJ. It's largely differentials in parenting. Of course, this will never be addressed until the citizenry takes individual responsibility and stops thinking government can actually solve these problems.[/quote] The mentality towards schools is the culprit. Even the new African immigeration knows the value of schools, but many white Americans are obsessed with sports. Regardless of the economic strata. Where else do you have 3 hours of sports after the school? Ridicilous. Where else do you have sport that cheers other sport? And before football gamers, parents making huge meals for the team? And after the game, going to eat again? It is ridicilous, and it is parent-driven. How many times you hear music oscut due to funds, but football team is getting new uniforms? Somehow school's main goal became sports and partying and not education.[/quote]
