[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When people say that demographics should reflect arlington, you should understand that to mean the school system. [/quote] One thing is clear - the demographics will head south if every school is supposed to be the same. [/quote] What does this mean?[/quote] Not the PP, but I would interpret this to mean that wealthy white people will flee the public schools if they become more diverse. I don't think it would come to this. I think it's a lot of bluster, but I doubt any significant number of families would decamp for private or another jurisdiction. Most people would not have this option even if their instincts were to flee. Then over time they would realize that their children weren't negatively affected, and perhaps even positively affected, by increased diversity. And for those that would flee, I say, let them leave. Buh-bye. We need the seats anyway. [/quote]
