[quote=Anonymous]I WANT to send my kids to a racially diverse school. The problem I have with Kenmore is all the studies showing poorer educational performance at schools at a poverty tipping point, usually around 40 to 45 percent. At 20, 30% percent, the other kids bring the poorer kids up with them, school has enough resources to deal. At 40% and higher levels of poverty in a school, school is just overwhelmed. THAT, and the fact that Swanson is about a mile closer to us, is my objection to the move. But I'm not sure if I should object or let our family be used to help others in need. [/quote]
