[quote=Anonymous]"It is ALSO racism. That does not mean that it is exclusively racism. But racism is involved. Not to mention that it is impossible to have an honest discussion of SES in Montgomery County -- or the US in general -- without including race and racism." But by saying that it's racism you basically try to dismiss the concerns that parents rightfully have about those schools. If avoidance of a school is chalked up to racism then that is not something fixable which might be convenient for MCPS but truly sucks for the many eastern county families that would like to be able to send their kids to those schools and it also sucks for the lower SES kids that currently make up a majority of their school populations since the best way to rehabilitate a school is to entice more middle class families to attend.
