[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The hilarious thing is that literally no one is suggesting busing - just balancing the boundaries a little to deal with schools that are overcrowded near schools that have space. This means the MOST segregated communities are the safest, since their boundaries are least likely to touch an integrated school zone. [/quote] The really funny part of all this is that student outcomes are a function of student SES mostly. So bussing kids around may change a school's average by altering it's overall SES but will have almost no effect on individual student outcomes since bussing doesn't change a student's SES. It's a solution to the wrong problem that doesn't really help or hurt anyone directly. It wastes a bunch of money on transportation that could've been used for education.[/quote] Science says you're wrong. https://tcf.org/assets/downloads/tcf-Schwartz.pdf[/quote]
