[quote=Anonymous]Wait - aren't you arguing for in-school segregation? By being so sad that your DC isn't going along with the other smart kids into the GT classes and is depressed at being stuck back with kids who don't school seriously, you are doing the same the thing that you accuse parents who live in W schools of doing. You don't want your kid surrounded by lower performing students. You want the housing discount as along as your child can be put in a class with other high performing white kids.

You do realize that Pat O'Neil (BOE) vehemently fights local CES, differentiation  and tracking for exactly this reason. She spoken often against the optics of all the white wealthy high performing kids walking off to the GT classes while the rest of the kids of color sit back in the regular classrooms. Plus all the resources that are going into teaching this local CES for white kids are taking resources away from the kids of color that need them more. What is the point of allocating more money and resources to schools with high FARMS and lower SES kids only to divert the resources back to PBES white kids???[/quote]
