[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok let's take Wilson out if the picture here.  Why do white families apply and attend SWW but not Banneker?[/quote]
Maybe one reason is that it's an application school with SAT scores lower than the national average?[/quote]

Compare the black SAT to nationwide black SAT then show me some stats.  Trust me your white angel will do just as well on SATs at Banneker than Walls.  If there were more than 25 white students at Bannker you'd be able to do way better comparison but instead people keep throwing out black student SATs and comparing them nationwide when it's a fact that black SATs are lower.  If rather have the explanations from others that you don't want to be the only white.  Ok I get it.  That hasn't stopped white families from being the only white at all Latin schools.  [/quote]

I'm at a loss to understand why anyone cares whether or not there are white kids at Banneker. Clearly the school is doing well without them and I would hope that no one thinks it needs white kids to validate its success.[/quote]

COMMENTS LIKE THIS are highly irritating.  There is a lot of learning going on from 9-3 at Banneker.  Please stop comparing Banneker to nationwide stats.

National black student SAT scores are 1273, Black students at Banneker 1466.  If that stat doesn't make you look twice (especially if you're not IB at Wilson), then I will certainly call the race card, or at least wonder...[/quote]
