[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This blogger uses the variance in the FARMS rate to say that Howard County schools are the most segregated in Maryland.    He doesn't show his numbers though  -- I would have bet on MCPS.

I understand that politicians or reporters would sometimes be interested in this. It can be a controversial topic that can be used to gain publicity.
But in reality, [b]why would a parent care whether the schools in the county are segregated[/b]?

Because segregated schools are bad for the society their children will live in.

[b]And also because many parents care for more than just what's immediately good for their individual children.[/b][/quote]

I completely disagree with this statement.  Many parents, in theory, like the idea of less segregation, but as soon as it comes time for their precious white kids to attend school?  That's a whole other ball of wax.  I mean, there are those of us parents who do walk the walk, but so many more just talk the talk.[/quote]

I’d like to know what the [b]Central american mothers and fathers think about treating a greater good and integrated community[/b].[/quote]

What does this mean?[/quote]
