[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is simply no way they will cut out the one portal for poor black kids into deal. SES isn’t great but without it many black Families would find themselves in a pinch and Wilson would accelerate becoming a mostly white and higher SES high school which makes the rest of DC feel uneasy. [/quote] I don't know why people are struggling to get this but Deal doesn't have a lot of low income kids anymore. Shepherd is a portal for middle class kids, many black but some white, to get into Deal. It is not a portal for low income kids to get into Deal. Create a second viable middle school for high SES earners and then use the extra capacity to actually get low income AA kids into those schools, something that is not really happening today.[/quote]
