[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Walls is 51% white and 49% non-white.[/quote]

And 24% of the “non-white” population is Black.  That’s hardly a 50/50 split.[/quote]

Huh?  No one is saying the school is 50% black.

This is misinformation. Most of my child's African American friends did not get into Walls and acceptance was higher among whites.

Not so sure about that. This class looks to be close to 50/50.[/quote]

Your reliance on you own personal experience is misinformation.  Just because you know a few blacks kids that didn’t get in means nothing.

The school is very diverse and has plenty of black kids.[/quote]

You completely missed the point.  Please read for understanding and comprehension before commenting.[/quote]

No, I didn't miss your point.  You missed the point.  Claiming that Walls is racist because you know some black kids that didn't get in is just dumb.

I know some white kids that didn't get it in.  Is Walls racist against white kids?

Look at the data.  Half the class is people of color and a quarter is black.[/quote]
