[quote=Anonymous][quote]I was referring to socio-economic diversity. Many of Arlington's schools are 10-50% low income. No one's inferring anything about black people. Arlington schools don't even have a large black population.[/quote] I'm having a hard time making sense out what you're saying. Here's a comparison of Yorktown High (arlington) with Centreville High (where my kids would go in Fairfax): (from http://www.usnews.com/education/best-high-schools/virginia/districts/arlington-county-public-schools/yorktown-high-20365) Yorktown High (Arlington) College Readiness Index 60.3 Total Minority Enrollment (% of total) 33% Total Economically Disadvantaged (% of total) 14% Centreville High (Fairfax County) College Readiness Index 56.3 Total Minority Enrollment (% of total) 51% Total Economically Disadvantaged (% of total) 18% !!!!!![/quote]
