[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again it all boils down to the ratio of whites to blacks when it is time for the middle schools and high school selections.  Let's be honest the neighborhood lure loses the luster when everyone reaches middle school and high school.  As I said before the diversity in pre-k gives everyone comfort.  But when the incoming 9th grade class due to school boundaries has Capitol Hill interacting with Benning Heights, all of sudden the moving vans are arriving.[/quote]

Ah, give me a break! That's just too easy an answer to everything. If I've learned one thing as a parent in a diverse/gentrifying/urban, whatever you want to call it, DC school it's that black doesn't equal black and white doesn't equal white. It's just not that simple, as much as one or the other here try to drive that wedge into every single DCUM discussion about public schools. 
(BTW, are you the poster I still need to take up on that chicken dinner at that place in Benning Hights? Danny's or something?)[/quote]
