[quote=Anonymous]The bigger issue here is probably this: DC is unusual in that it attracts a lot of high-achieving people from across the country -- the sort who got good grades in school, who went to prestigious colleges and who now want (expect) the same for their kids. But the reality of DC is that most schools here, beyond elementary years, are just bad. Some are unbelievably bad. The city of DC has a very high tolerance for very low performing schools. I think that's where a lot of the tension comes from. It's not race. It's more of a class issue. [/quote]
