[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]By the way, talking about "cutting ALL DIVERSITY" is playing the boogeyman here. Unless by diversity you mean black. Because that's all the diversity that comes from Shephard Park and Colonial Village (again, same website). I'm not trying to say black-white diversity is worthless. But making all diversity only a matter of black or white is short-sighted to an almost unimaginable degree.

Regardless, this is stupid. Many people want diversity but they are unwilling to sacrifice the education of their children for the sake of some stupid quotas. If it's ever a matter of preparation for later academic success versus greater exposure to more cultures, I don't think you get to even finish the question before you receive an answer. (Yes, I acknowledge that diversity can help provide "life skills," but value is determined at the margin, and the marginal benefit is probably quite small.) [/quote]

No worries darling, you're not going to sacrifice your kid's education by keeping the black kids that are currently there via IB.  Chances are they are on par with your little one.[/quote]
