[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] It makes you a racist, when you say that...they have too many FARMs at that school. [/quote] No. Actually this isn't evidence of racism at all. I don't have any problem sending my kid to a school with 90% members of a different race. I have a big problem with sending my kid to a school with 90% FARMS students. [b]Because there's plenty of evidence that in most cases, when you have a school with a very high poverty load, that school does not work. Particularly in an urban environment.[/b] To ignore that is just to ignore reality. And to yell "racism" at someone who points out this plain fact is disingenuous at best.[/quote] Agreed, and I am an AA who would not send my kids to a school which is 90% FARMS for the reasons mentioned above as well as the fact that there are often behavioral issues in these schools which I don't want my children exposed to.[/quote]
