[quote=Anonymous]I am the poster about segregated schools in arlington. Can't speak for FCSD because I don't live there. I can speak about arlington. North is white for the most part, south is Latino with a few others mixed in. Not possible to even deny the demographics. low income vs high income. Segregation is segregation, just different causes. Here a big part of it is this county's desision to concentrate poverty in south arlington. So, all the things that come with that follow. So when people talk about how great arlington schools are, that is a misrepresentation

I live right on the border of north and south, literally one street away. Almost every family around us does what ever they can to NOT send their kids to local schools. WL is probably closer to us than wakefield, but our kid will take a bus to wakefield. I don't know who posted about bussing kids to s arlington, but why can't we be bussed to north? We will move north, like everyone else as soon as we can afford it (and of course perpetuate the segregation)[/quote]
