[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In case the point isn't clear enough to you, the math and the politics for funding schools doesn't work if we keep adding an outsized share of low-income kids.

Concentrated poverty is terrible for schools. We have numerous elementary schools with 70-80% FARMS rates. To nobody's surprise, the higher income people in those neighborhoods tend to choose private. While some of that I'm sure has to do with racism, it's also a rational choice given what we know about the impacts of concentrated poverty on education.

This is not sustainable, and I don't know how folks don't see this.[/quote]

It’s racist to not want your kids to be left behind due to large populations of poor kids from other countries?  Publics in liberal counties want to eliminate parent rights for just this reason.[/quote]

Most of these kids are actually poor kids from [i]this[/i] country. Their parents are immigrants, just like one of my parents and three of my grandparents were immigrants.[/quote]

Your parents came here legally, more than likely. What’s going on now at the border is not constitutionally legal. [/quote]
