[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm black and live a short distance from Banneker. It's obviously a good school, though I have no idea if my elementary school kid is cut out for it. I also don't even know if he'd even want to go there. But there are so many other factors that we'll consider as a family when the time comes. Social well-being, safety, commute, extra-curriculars. I don't judge any other family using the same criteria and some of those take Banneker out of consideration when there are other options. I'm not sure why some people forget that. It's almost as if the one thing that would truly make Banneker the best school is more white people. And I know that's not true.[/quote] Right, it's not that white ppl will improve Banneker. It's that white people will not enroll there, which exposes their argument that "all I want is a GOOD school" for the racist crap that it is. [/quote]
