[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have zero problems with diversity as a N Arlington parent, in fact we applied to lottery schools in S Arlington but got wait listed. And, we moved to Arlington (vs Loudon county for diversity).

But I do not want to willingly send my kids to schools with known unaddressed problems (Kenmore) in the classroom, poorer performance than my walking-distance school (Swanson), AND that will make my tweens dependent on my transportation if I have to drop off or pick up due to before/after school activities (not to mention adding to commute time in the opposite direction, adding 30+ mins to my already too-long commute to the Dulles corridor)!!

Enough with calling us "racists" when we just seek the BEST and most convenient local education for our kids. Yes, we scrimped and saved to move to our neighborhood primarily BASED ON THE (zoned) SCHOOLS! All of you promoting diversity (north and south Arlington) are welcome to transfer your kids to Randolph, Kenmore, etc. And, taking diversity one step further, go live in a 3-bedroom apartment along Columbia pike (like we did) for a few years to fully immerse yourselves!![/quote]

Now you know how Trump voters feel. They honestly believe they are supporting the policies that will make the country safer and more prosperous, which is what it sounds like you want for your family. And they are called racists![/quote]
