[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Expelling the kids with the 100 worst disciplinary records might not be the best thing for *those* 100 kids, but I'd guess it would be the best thing for a whole bunch of other kids (both from an overcrowding and a school atmosphere perspective). [/quote] And a terrible thing for the schools that receive them.[/quote] But if the schools that receive them - are their IB school - this is how the "rules" are written. [/quote] You are completely glossing over how expelling 100 poor black kids would be perceived out of the one decent HS in the city that just happens to be trending whiter every year. The cries of accelerated gentrification would be loud and justified [/quote] I'm not convinced the 100 students with the "worst attendance and disciplinary records' would necessarily be all poor and black kids. [/quote]
