[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up in bum f nowhere in the mountains.  I didn’t meet a Jewish person until I was in my 20’s.  I never though Jewish people had horns though, that sounds like a really bad prejudiced joke.  Jewish people are humans after all.

This whole “segregation” thing is really the wrong term.  True segregation had white and black schools.  Black kids couldn’t go to the white school even if they lived in the district.  This is economic self-segregation.  I know many don’t understand this but lots of very low income people don’t have the money for a car and can’t get to their kid’s schools for conferences and events if the school is far away.  They need to talk to the people they’re trying to de-segregate to make sure they actually want this before they do it.  I do think that they need to fill up the schools with extra capacity so a boundary study is definitely needed.  You shouldn’t have undercapacity schools and not use that capacity prior to building new schools.[/quote]

Don't worry the new mantra is that they won't bus the poor kids to good schools instead they'll make the the UMC kids commute to the poor kids.

Isn’t this what they decided to do in Howard County?[/quote]
