[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SES is strongly correlated to race and that's why some people make the jump to racisim it's not true. All any family wants is the best education for their child and the higher SES you go the better the educational experience. Thats just a fact[/quote] Isn't being exposed to a realistic cross section of the society you live in part of the educational experience? How long will you shield your child from lower SES people for? You may not call it racism, but that's what it amounts to.[/quote] Look at the "reading groups" thread and tell me that the kid (from a W feeder) whose reading group met once last year is getting a better education than my kid in a diverse east-county public school whose group meets twice a week and is, as a group, working two grades above level. You might want to think that a higher SES is some sort of panacea, but it's not. There are good schools and less-good schools no matter where you go. [/quote]
