[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is obviously true is that most high-SES parents in the Stanton Park neighborhood won't put their kids in majority AA classes, because AA is highly correlated with socially and academically challenged in DCPS. Maybe a 1/4 of these are OK with sending their kids to majority AA classes (mostly very liberal whites, vs. high-SES black parents). [/quote] [b]If you aren't OK with majority-AA classes, don't enroll your kid in a predominantly black school system.[/b] Mathematically, the only way to have a predominantly black school system without having majority-AA classes is to have segregated schools (which, unfortunately, is awfully close to what DC has). I suppose I shouldn't be surprised/disappointed that people are so accepting of -- in fact, advocating for -- segregation. But really -- it's 2013! Next year it will be [b]60 years[/b] since Brown v. Board of Education.[/quote]
