Again, TYPE IT. Type it out and tell us why you don't want to center racial equity. Admit it. Come clean. You'll feel good.
I’ll take learning for $500, Alex. Learning should be at the center of everything ACPS does as a school division.
+1. Education should be at the center of what every school system does.
How is APS's pledge to center racial equity in everything they do somehow mutually exclusive of APS's commitment to learning? You can have both? We do understand that learning that is not a monolith, yes? (I know you don't, because racism is a sign of a week mind, but you could...).
It’s ACPS, not APS. I guess they could focus on both, but that’s not what their statement says. It doesn’t say it’s “very important,” it says it’s at the center. Usually just one thing is at the center, and I think it’s weird for a school system to list anything besides education as its primary focus. But oh well.
An apple centers its seeds; that doesn’t diminish the apple. An educational system can center equity; that doesn’t diminish the educational system. Equity is a crucial facet, not a competing identity.

Not sure this is true. What’s good about the title one classes in Arlington is that they only have 15-17 kids per class. My “good school” has 27 in their class. It’s ridiculous.
This is not true. APS Title I schools are a couple of kids smaller but not by that much. Some of the kindergarten classes are are around 18-20 but grades 1-5 are also in the 20s.

Schools in rural areas all over the country are going to get clobbered, not us.

Try for ATS in the school lottery and see if you can get in. We did not get in, but oh how we wish we had.
