Why is why wealthy blacks will fight to segregate their kids from other blacks.

Ask the Obamas for insights about Chicago and DC public schools.

Stop it with your ignorant comment.
Typical BS from HoCo segreganists.

Um tell that to all the UMC+ black folks in DC and PG county that are going private lol

Sigh!
Why would they live in PG if they wanted to segregate their kids from other black kids?
Stop digging yourself into a hole.

its segregation from the poorst you idiot. You can get a ton of house for the money in PG but the schools generally suck so most people of means go private

Classes are still segregated generally with richer, whiter and more asian kids along with Africans taking more advanced classes

and poorer more black (but not Africans) and Hispanic kids taking lower classes

all this is does is just reinforce stereotypes. Still want to integrate schools now?

Also have you ever been to an integrated school cafeteria, kids generally sit with whoever they have classes with and just like with human housing settlement patters you have segregation by table/neighborhood

I can't believe that in 2019, people are still saying that segregated schools are just fine.

Actually I can believe it, but it's depressing.

Yep, but I am not surprised.
HoCo is one of the areas that people who wished for a MoCo of 1970's move to.

I forgot add that the county is not segregating by race. If you go to the statisticatlas links above for Howard County, take a look at the distribution of race across the county. You'll see that the races tend to distribute themselves in groups around the county. Caucasians are much more likely to buy in the western part of the county and the minorities have bigger clusters in different parts of the county.

HCPSS revisits the zoning for schools every 2 years. They prioritize trying to move groups from oversubscribed schools to under-subscribed schools trying to get each school as close to 100% optimal capacity. And they move neighborhoods, not races. If you want to see some of the proposed adjustments, take a look at this individuals web-site. Look at the original proposed map (the one in all green) and compare it with the demographic charts on statisticatlas. You'll see that adjusting for each school to be evenly populated concentrates various races in some schools just because of where they live..

This X100. School boundaries should be based on keeping neighborhoods together, kids close to home schools and having a sense of community. Its overreaching IMO for school systems to judge where people choose to live and try to remodel things by bussing kids far away. Its a losing exercise anyway. If you rezone wealthy areas into poorer areas and vice versa, you just change the monetary value of the properties. Wealthy people will migrate back to the more expensive properties and poor people will migrate back toward the more affordable ones and you'll be back where you started.

Howard is just being more rational and focusing on educating ALL its students.

Hmm. When you stick all your FARM kids within the same 5 schools, are you sure about that?
