[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OK, PP, you've persuaded me. [b]Whitman provides a better education than Blair.[/b] Therefore we should send the kids from Blair to Whitman. It's not fair to the kids at Blair to leave them languishing in an inferior school.[/quote] The bold part just expresses the obvious. Now that we acknowledged that we have a problem, we can look for solutions. And the solution should involve improving Blair, not leaving it empty by sending all the kids to Whitman. [/quote] OK, then we will only send the poor kids from Blair to Whitman. It is well-established that poor kids score higher on standardized tests when they attend schools with a low percentage of poor kids than when they attend schools with a high percentage of poor kids. Meanwhile we will send some of the affluent kids from Whitman to Blair. Then the overall test scores at Blair will go up, which will mean that the school has improved.[/quote]
