[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rich people move to certain neighborhoods "for the schools". Poor people move where affordable, or can't afford to move. That creates and perpetuates inequality. Solution: 1. Announce a multi year migration to equal (not "equitable") advanced programs everywhere, with no bussing. 2. County has 25 high schools and 1000 seats per year for special programs? 40 seats per year per school, done. Not enough seats at Whitman for all the geniuses? Oh, well! 3. Rich people start moving to high FARMS areas "for the schools". .... Or they move to a different county. [/quote] Or they just go to private. Hell, DC starts looking better and easier as a commute if I’m sending my kids to private school. The reality is there is nowhere near the budget or land availability or political will for anything close to what you’re recommending. [/quote]
