[quote=Anonymous]This entire conversation about race is way too general to be relevant to what's actually happening in schools in rapidly gentrifying neighborhoods. Our Title 1 is fully of biracial higher SES families, none of whom count as "white" for this discussion or the demographic breakdown at the school. But my white DC's small group was her and 3 biracial kids (Black, Asian, and Latino), and I think all of those kids are back again this year. My DC is 1-2 grade levels ahead, so I'm guessing those kids are roughly the same. I'm pretty sure the people talking about "peer groups" and expectations haven't had any first hand experience in schools like ours in the last 5-7 years.[/quote]
