[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many African-American or Hispanic students are there at Langley? [/quote] Is that seriously your only benchmark for diversity? There are kids from probably every nation who attend Langley. I'd call that diversity. [/quote] np here. this is what bothers me about calls for diversity. We really should define it based on SES diversity and stop fixating on skin color. [/quote] Regardless of how you get there, a truly diverse school will have more than token representation from the two largest minority groups in the US. And yes, SES diversity is important as well. [/quote] Maybe to you, but the fact is that people pay a premium to live in the school districts with the highest test scores and top ratings, regardless of whether they happen to tick off your diversity criteria.[/quote]
