[quote=Anonymous]How different is this from the NY model from which I understand that you either go neighborhood or apply to a certain number of schools. I know NYT has had some crisis pieces that this has not worked for some kids who have parents that don't know how to work the system. It seems to me that SF, NY and DC are all facing the fundamental disparity issue. Rich people don't like poor people around emphasizing how much privilege they have. Middle class at best can barely hold on and have to move. If you are poor your just screwed. We are just depending too much on our schools to straighten out fundamental changes in our economy and values. [/quote]
