[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL DC is totally segregated

Almost all the public schools are 90% plus black  except NW of course and capitol hill which is very very white

Tier 1 Charters are majority white
Tier 2 Charters are majority black/hispnaic

And I agree with PP Fairfax County AAP is white/asian flight out of schools that are perfectly fine but not good enough whatever the heck that means

What I would propose and the only thing that actually works is incenitivizing veteran teachers to teach at low performing schools.

This does not mean higher salaries usually it means giving teachers autonomy because veteran teachers can make stuff happen as long as the paper work and administration is kept to a minimum[/quote]

Or how about incentivizing families in "non-white" neighborhoods to move to "more white" areas in order to have access to the "more white" schools?  The government could cut checks to help pay for differences in housing costs.  Would you "anti-segregationist" types jump all over a policy like that?  It would be more humane than a "forced busing" policy designed to create the kind of diversity you're concerned about.[/quote]
