Florida (where I moved to in High School) pretty much sprinkles the kids from the ghetto at high schools througout the county, meaning you can't exactly flee to another school district unless its in Georgia. The concept of "local schools" is foreign down there. If your kids are in a Florida public school, you better push them into the honors program, otherwise its English 101 with the Bloods and Crips.

Of course they abolished the honors programs in Maplewood/South Orange, as it turned out that those classes were overwhelmingly white, while the regular track kids were black. After abolition, Maplewood's schools lost nearly all of its white students and the black kids who's parents pushed them into the honors program.

"Is diversity now a religion? "

Diversity is the next battleground for Homeschoolers. Now that they can't say Homeschoolers are not scoring well on tests, they are saying that it's not good because they are not exposed to the diversity of the pubilc school system.

There was a thread on this recently which started when some NEA clown wrote about Homeschoolers but I can't seem to find it right now.

[P.O.E.]

Anybody ever quantify the benefits of diversity? Test scores, health, financial, anything? Anyone? Bueller?

Thanks for the ping!

As you certainly know, New Jersey is owned and operated not only by the regular old NY/North Jersey Mafia, it is also controlled by the entrenched education mafia. There is not a more corrupt judiciary, including the state's Supreme Court, than New Jersey's. And I have no idea what, if anything, can ever be done about it.

Good luck!
