[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]http://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/09/booming/desegregation-and-the-public-schools.html [/quote] "...Researchers like Prof. Roslyn Mickelson at the University of North Carolina, Charlotte, conducted studies concluding that children of any race who attended diverse schools were more likely to succeed, in areas like graduating, avoiding crime and attending college.... Notice the emphasis she puts in the video on "[b]middle class students" from all races benefiting when they attend schools that have middle class students from diverse races[/b]. Also - When the AA principal talks about the "White Flight" and the "Bright Flight", it reminds me of my own neighborhood, where our ES students are bused to a Title 1 school, when there are 8 ES closer to us. As a result, ES age students from our neighborhood are going to HGC or private schools. [/quote]
