[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Except the OP is claiming segregation based on racism not lack of economic diversity. (I do think the OP is full of shit and just pissed off about her home value.) In the Wootton cluster, you can get top ranked schools and [b]your kids have a wide range of friends with very diverse cultures, beliefs, and experiences[/b]. I fail to see how moving and putting them in a much lower performing school with less actual diversity but large populations of lower income kids clustered into one or two demographics would benefit them in any way.

I wouldn't want to lower my kid's education to help out the OP with her home values. [/quote]

Yes, that's true, if you overlook the fact that only 6% of the Wootton HS population is black, and only 7% is Hispanic. In a school district where 21% of students are black, and 32% are Hispanic.

Does Wootton have diversity? Yes. Is it a selective, exclusive kind of diversity? Yes. Is it segregation? Yes. Are you going to "lower your kid's education" if you send your kid to a school with kids who are poor/black/Hispanic? No. Is anyone upset that you don't want to live in the DCC? No.[/quote]
