[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sure the people at W-L paying lip service to the idea that they should be upset at the prospect of moving to Yorktown will get over it when their property values increase.[/quote]

Sorry.  Don't need an increase.  My 7 figure home is much nicer than most of our kids' friends who are zoned for Yorktown.  Not everyone in WL is poorer than their YT counterparts.  But please do continue your crusade and then not only will we see this 'increase' that you speak of but I'll be much happier that there's some diversity in YT if my kids get stuck there.  Contrary to popular belief, we CHOSE to live in the WL school zone over YT.  Again, we are not a white family.

One could easily say it's the Wakefield parents who are paying lip service.  [b]They claim to love diversity at 42% or 46% but not if it's approaches 50%.[/b]  And there have been enough S. Arlington folks on this thread who have mentioned concerns about property values.

Can we please stop with this tired trope? It is not hypocritical so say you love diversity but also be concerned that the concentration of low-income students is becoming untenable. Just like it is not hypocritical for me to say I love ice cream but not want to eat it for every meal.
