[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the pass rates were the same as noted but the ethnic make up was 90% white would you still be asking?[/quote] This is what I am wondering. My children are second generation Indian-Americans. Are you trying to avoid having your children attend school with children like mine? Do you want your children to only be friends with other white children? [/quote] The minority kids self-segregate anyway, especially in middle and high school, so it hardly matters. Plus, many of them talk poorly of the white students so there is a double-standard in the oh-so-desired "diversity" of the area, and I want no part of that. [/quote] What do you want no part of - the diversity? [/quote] OP here. The above reply was not from me. I want my kids around other conscientious college-bound kids. Kids who spend a lot of their free time studying and doing homework, volunteering, participating in music, etc. I don't care about color. I'm also concerned about the class divide at the school - looking at the boundary, it's very much haves and have-nots - not much "middle". [/quote]
