[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One PP after another comes up claiming that they don't mind if their white kid attends a DCPS HS that's under 5% white. Predictably, hardly any of these people actually enroll. Do you have nothing better to do with your time?[/quote] My kid enrolled. What constructive action are you taking, exactly? Do you have nothing better to do with your time than demean those who have made or would make different choices? And, I'm not sure if you've noticed, but 5% white is not the least white high school in the city. Not by a long shot. Many of those of us who have sent our white kids to public school east of the park since preschool have already sent our kids to schools in which they were in the minority. They are used to it. It's not as big a deal to them as it might have been to us thirty years ago. Additionally, that five percent is not equally spread out among the classes. The earlier classes have more white kids.[/quote]
