[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's really clear when you saw the last version of the boundaries discussion that it wasn't Black, Latino, lower-income Bancroft families demanding remaining in the Wilson-now-JR feeder pattern, it was clearly the pearl-clutching white folks who didn't buy inbounds for Stoddert or Janney who NEEDED to be in the JR boundary. And of course these parents were hyping the "diversity" that Bancroft was providing to JR though of course they were um "not that." To me, that's the thing to end. If Bancroft feeds west, make it only at-risk families feed west. Everybody else, welcome to your neighborhood schools pattern and the lottery from out-of-bounds.[/quote] Yep. It’s exactly the same with Shepherd - all the wealthy white parents talking about the diversity of the school - pathetic and performative. [/quote] That’s…not my experience with shepherd. Maintaining the feeder pattern is a pretty universal sentiment.[/quote]
