Diversity in charter schools?
I assume you saw this new study, on the heals of last week's UCLA study, reporting on a 'lack of diversity' in charter schools.

HMMM. What is this about? My view is that diversity in schools should serve education --better teaching and learning for all students--not a civil rights notion that is not teaching/methodology driven. This is the same issue that permeates special education's push for 'inclusion'--far too often implemented because it meets people's belief system than promotes better teaching and learning for all kids.
Here, too, the fact that certain students attend certain schools does not ipso facto mean that there is a problem, that schools are excluding kids, that the schools are not effective, or that lawyers or government agencies need to step in to 'fix' it. Your thoughts?
