[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm new to the thread, and my kids attend a school that is over 70% white. People always think of our school as fairly homogenous, but it really isn't. When I started up a little PTA gig to promote diversity and inclusion and for things like international night, I did a little survey to figure out who's who and we have 34 home languages in a school of 700, and 17 different religions, and that is without splitting protestants. That's pretty mindblowing, and cool. I think it's important to look beyond skin color and realize that diversity can be much more.[/quote] Your school sounds lovely and truly diverse. Diverse does not mean that only people who are AA or Hispanic can be counted. If that's what people want to count, than say so. Using a euphemism such as " diverse" because it sounds nicer than saying we're only interested in counting the number of AA or Hispanics is a load of political crap.[/quote] +1[/quote]
