[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]APS has nothing to do with housing. You don't like the huge FARMS rates at certain schools? Go advocate to the County Board that you want to see affordable housing around Jamestown and Tuckahoe. Alternatively, go advocate in front of APS that you want forced busing to equalize FARMS rates across schools. People love to complain about this issue, but they're unwilling to actually do anything about it. [/quote] Oh please. There have been many of us advocating on these issues to both the school and county boards for YEARS. and "forced busing" isn't the only way to improve socioeconomic diversity within the schools. Those of use who have been in this conversation WITH the TWO boards over the years have made various arguments and [b]proposed various ways[/b] forward. But people have only so much energy, time, and tolerance for the ignorance, politics, and denialism of both boards who find it easier to just point their fingers at each other.[/quote] Such as?
