Just a brief note on clueless, out-of-touch “education” folks.
Bobbie Raehl, president of the St. Charles school board in St. Charles, Illinois, is genuinely shocked that parents in the district don’t want their kids shipped across town to satisfy leftists’ obsession with skin color diversity. Although the board says the diversity was socioeconomic, people unencumbered by PC-rewired brains know that’s code for race.
Says Raehl:
“What was supposed to be a plus [diversity] has turned into almost an abomination. It was supposed to be a good thing and has really backfired for lack of understanding.”
(Use “deathfromabove@spamhole.com” as e-mail and “heyman” as password to bypass annoying registration.)
As usual, another liberal misses the point entirely. It has nothing to do with so-called diversity being considered “an abomination.” Hardworking, taxpaying parents move to decent neighborhoods with decent schools for their kids, some with great sacrifice, and disconnected, head-in-the-sand liberals like Raehl want to undo all that by shipping high-performing students to low-performing schools to save themselves from the embarrassing reality of low-performing schools…unbelievable.
Experiment with your own kids, Mrs. Raehl.
Addendum: A blogger and/or reader more motivated than I would investigate to find out if Mrs. Raehl has children and whether those children went to public or private schools and whether she was willing to ship them across town for the sake of diversity.
I’m going out to play. Have a restful weekend!
