[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All the TO talk makes me wonder - what's the point of creating a specific class to your standards, whatever those standards are? Just a prestige thing? [/quote] I don't see how this is a prestige thing. Exposure to peers with a diversity of backgrounds, thoughts, geographies, etc is crucial to an enriching educational experience. [/quote] What you are describing is a white people thing. Most minorities have already co-existed in environments diverse in the examples you give. You make it seem so precious and rare. Maybe if you stopped segregating k-12 and making your kids live in your life bubble, they could worry as adults about more important things such as getting the best education they can. Now if you're talking about international students from around the world who have the same academic ability, then sure.[/quote]
