[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here are two facts about education: 1. SES correlates to student achievement. 2. Cohorts also affect student achievement. Thus parents who are focused on achievement seek out cohorts with high SES families. That is a sum total of the motivation of most parents.[/quote] way to miss the point[/quote] It's not missing the point. People on this thread are claiming that because DC's demographics break down the way they do, all people who seek out high SES cohorts are therefore racist and they are looking to avoid brown people. That is missing the point.[/quote] Banneker. [/quote] Yes and the system has made it so those are the only options. White people should demand more of the system. For their own children and for the black kids. NP. There's a huge difference between "looking to avoid brown people" and not wanting to be a 1% minority.[/quote][/quote]
