[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When will rich white parents realize that an all-white/high-ses public school system in their gentrified/gentrifying city is not their manifest destiny?[/quote] Oh shut up and go away. Lazy lazy thinking and accusations. DC is a dysfunctional school system that has failed the majority of its students for decades. Parents do not care if their kids' classmates are white black or purple. They don't care if they are rich or poor. THEY DO care if their child's classmates are I adequately prepared for academic work and proper social interaction. If we had a school system that worked, it could possibly mitigate the effects of poverty on these factors. In the meantime, it is only prudent and CAUSED by the inability of our schools system to properly educate all children, to try to find a scenario where classmates have the highest probability of learning DESPITE the systemic failures.[/quote]
