[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] "Redistributing kids" won't solve the problem. Kids self-segregate - even in some very diverse schools. In the "W schools," they'll self-segregate by money. Do you honestly think some kid living in low-income housing will be welcomed by the kid in the mansion? doubtful And sprinkling in a few kids coming from disadvantaged homes will make them stand out, as most will be black and Hispanic. Is that fair? If I had the answer, I'd be a millionaire. But I know that this solution will not work either. [/quote] This solution actually does work. I don't know if a kid in a mansion will welcome a kid living in low-income housing, and I don't know if it's fair to make disadvantaged kids to stand out. What I do know is that the educational outcomes for poor kids are a lot better in low-poverty schools than in high-poverty schools.[/quote]
