[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is inevitable that DC will have to adopt a random lottery placement system for public schools, like in San Francisco. Neighborhood-based schools are inherently exclusionary. Only with a true DC-wide lottery (with diversity adjustments) will DC achieve equity.[/quote] Why not forced busing?[/quote] Hey bro, the Seventies are over.[/quote] Doesn't matter what era, if it's the only way to get DC schools integrated. Typically, people only object when it affects them personally.[/quote] Obviously. If you put some kids zoned in the Janney cluster on some forced bus to Marion Barry High, you’d see a Brooks Brothers riot. [/quote] Exactly. Yet it happened across the south. Get it going in DC.[/quote] Only if you want to see white (and Asian) flight from the public schools and from the District itself.[/quote]
