[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This isn't a liberal or conservative issue most people are going to pick the best school read (high SES which is strongly correlated with race, best test scores etc)

Diversity is a very distance metric for most people if it's even a metric at all.

DC is overwhelmingly liberal and most parents feel this way the ones that don't are generally naive with kids in the early elementary grades[/quote]

I see it as a liberal/conservative issue because I live in a wonderful area with high quality AND diverse schools, and the only people I see moving out of my neighborhood for a whiter school are conservative whites. Many white people are truly uncomfortable around other races, and more of those people are conservative.[/quote]

Are they actually conservative or do you just consider anyone who moves to a better school a conservative? This region voted heavily Democrat this last election. A lot of you seem to be making excuses for staying where you are. That's perfectly fine, but you can also respect other family's desire to set their kids up for the best chance of success.[/quote]
