[quote=Anonymous]12:37 here again. I would add that in Maryland, the only way that will work (mixing low SES kids with high SES kids) is if you do it across county lines. I think that's partly how the current situation was create; people fled PG county and Baltimore city for that reason. So, now, there's an inequitable concentration of poverty in PG county and Baltimore City compared to MOCO, AA county and Baltimore County. So it won't help moving kids around within PG or Baltimore City if most of those schools have a disproportionate concentration of low SES. You'd have to start moving PG County and Baltimore City kids into AA, MOCO and Baltimore County schools. Judging by the reaction just within MOCO when that happens, I don't think it would go over well. Residents of the higher SES counties would fight it, vehemently.[/quote]
