[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is also annoying is the N. Arlington mom who goes to the last SB meeting to bemoan the fact that her HS aged daughter doesn't have enough diversity in their lily white school. WTF? Seriously. Why do you want everyone else to be bussed in? You can always request a transfer to Wakefield. Why should tons of people be inconvenienced so you can feel less guilty about your choice.

Oh yeah. The chutzpah of that woman wanting to see Arlington integrate its schools, when she has the the "choice" to send her kids to Wakefield--currently operating at 50% poverty. Heaven forbid APS look at demographics. That's not part of the boundary criteria. Oh wait, it is?  Nevermind.  There still must be something wrong with her. She should keep her mouth shut and just enjoy the latent racism of N. Arlington. [/quote]

No. If she really gave a shit she wouldn't have moved up to the whitest area of arlington.  Like they said at the meetings people can request transfers to wakefield. What she is proposing to do is to inconvenience tons of people by having the poorer kids bus all the way across town just so they feel better about their completely voluntary decision. And as a result other kids who might actually want to stay in the zone they luve near might get bussed to wakefield.[/quote]
