[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fair point but like others have said it's almost impossible to tell what the real quality of a school is

[b]Therefore test scores, graduation rates, college acceptance and type of college kids are accepted to and discipline issues is the only thing to go on  [/b]

Higher SES is directly correlated with higher rates of these factors and lower rates of serious discipline issues (suspensions expulsions dropping out etc)

Higher SES is directly correlated to certain races over others

Now some think the purpose of school isn't to go to the best college you can to those I say why are you mortgaging your kids future on some liberal crusade of diversity

No, they're not.

You keep begging the question. By which I mean, this is your reasoning:

You: The good schools are the schools with lots of kids from affluent, educated families.
Us: How do you know?
You: Because diversity is PC bunk.
Us: How do you know?
You: Because the schools with lots of kids from affluent, educated families are the good schools.

Look its not rocket science

Which schools have veteran teachers clamoring to be there vs ones that teachers want to get away from and have trouble staffing
Which schools have tons more resources volunteers and extracurriculars vs barely scraping buy

Answer its all related to higher SES which is strongly correlated to the racial makeup of the school

Those are the facts

I'm done here seems like you don't have any commonsense typical DCUM liberal

A school need not be 50+% FARMS in order to be socio-economically diverse.  Research suggests this is the tipping point at which the achievement of middle-class students may be negatively impacted.  And when you control for SES, research indicates white student achievement in schools with the highest minority density does not differ from white student achievement in schools with the lowest density.

Actually the school starts taking a hit at rates as low as 15% with a gradual decline until you get to 40%.  Once you hit 40% not even the best principal/teachers/parents/students can turn the school around

Last statement of course SES trumps all. It's why [b]most responsible parents buy a house in the most expensive area (read best school district) they can afford[/b]

And finally for the life of me why would any parent want to use their child as a science experiment and go to a school with more racial and SES diversity of a school  with higher SES and higher outcomes across the board
 
This liberal white guilt disease is insane sacrificing your own offspring's education in the name of diversity?!?!?!?!? INSANE[/quote]

Or perhaps, since research tells us that racially and socioeconomically diverse environments promote creativity, motivation, deeper learning, critical thinking, problem-solving skills, empathy and greater tolerance, the most responsible parents are those who buy a house in racially and socioeconomically diverse areas.

Sacrificing your own offspring's education in the name of homogeneity?!?!?!?!? INSANE

Then I guess you will send your kid to a SES and racially diverse college right.  Are you really this stupid and moronic.[/quote]
