[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None of the 14 school is integrated by race or class. Ech. These programs are obviously a big improvement over bad schools segregated by race and class, but this is still an apartheid approach to education. I feel like I benefitted from attending highly socioeconomically and racially diverse public schools as a poor kid of color as much as I did from the education and enrichment provided. When I got to a top college, I struggled a bit socially and academically, but not nearly as much as I would have done without having attended diverse schools.[/quote] I hear you but the schools are responding to the population they have -- they didn't create the population. I started my education in a very racially segregated poor school that was much better than my next school in a more diverse "better" neighborhood. We all have stories but what's the solution?
