[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Students in the actual feeder elementary schools for Eliot Hine: Tyler, Maury, Miner, Brent, Payne. Very few of these 5th graders go to their designated school, Eliot Hine.[/quote] [b]The kids in the upper grades at the aforementioned elementary schools are mostly African American[/b]. Yet [b]the parents working on "holding hands" and jumping into Eliot Hine are almost all white ([u]and middle class[/u])[/b]. It doesn't have to mean anything nefarious is going on, but there is a an overwhelming element of race in play.[/quote] There's a risk of conflating race with class, here. [/quote]
