[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"I think your argument that charters offer more exclusion is bogus since our charter is very diverse despite offering a very rigorous curricula."

See, this is liberal delusion at its best.  The charters that white people in D.C. use may have more dark skinned kids, but they still lack economic diversity.  Parents living on the edge and working several minimum wage jobs just aren't going to have computer and broadband access to research and apply for many of the better charters, and then drive their kids across town to get them there.

It doesn't sound like you're actually in DC or have any familiarity with the schools here.

Every charter discussed on this board has more economic diversity than any of the DCPS schools.  The charters that [i]aren't [/i]discussed here are the ones with majority lower income students, like KIPP, DC Prep or Ceasar Chavez.

I agree that there's hypocrisy when it comes to liberal values and education, but if "liberal delusion" is your only argument it's falling flat.[/quote]

Hard to believe that the subject hasn't been turned back to "all the cars I see dropping off kids at charters have Marlyand tags." That's a line DC's liberals and progressives love to hear.[/quote]
