Rich Mayospawn are forced to attend inner city schools. It goes about as well as you'd expect.

But white students test ... two and a half grade levels ahead of Asian students

Darn these some smart mayos

For years, the district has been a central figure in lawsuit that accuses the state of allowing school segregation, including in Minneapolis. A tentative settlement, reached this year, could set the stage for broader change. The agreement would loop in suburban districts, which tend to be whiter and wealthier, and some of those districts would be required to work with districts like Minneapolis on a regional integration plan. Wealthier districts would accept disadvantaged students and vice versa, and the state would pay for transportation. The agreement would also create magnet schools to draw diverse students together.

Why is the New York Times writing a progressive fluff piece for a school district being sued for systemic racism and then blaming white parents who don't want to sacrifice their children's education because of some administrator's r-slurred overreaction to a lawsuit?

This could all be avoided if we just funded schools federally instead of locally with property taxes

My dad lived in the south and when schools were desegregated he ended up in a black school which was pretty bad, so it got torn down and rebuilt pretty quick. Turns out mayos can actually improve things when they have the right kind of persuasion.

I posted this earlier.

This Vitamin D-deficient iceberg comes up to you at the PTA meeting and demands $10,000 for "anti-racism programming methodologies", what do you do?

Call me r-slurred, but if things are actually gonna be fixed by people it's going to look something like this, at least for a while.

she looked around and proudly considered all that her school had to offer.

Cue gunshots and screaming

Minneapolis, among the most segregated school districts in the country, with one of the widest racial academic gaps, is in the midst of a sweeping plan to overhaul and integrate its schools

I unironically feel bad for these kids. When I went to high school everyone was worried about getting sent off to one of the (literally 3 times larger) shitty city schools.

The changes included redrawing school zones, including for North. “This plan is saying, everyone is going to be equally inconvenienced because we need to collectively address the underachievement of our students of color,” Mr. Moore added.

We're gonna fuck ur shit up cuz jamal ain't learning BEDMAS fast enough

If there is anywhere white families might embrace an integration plan, a likely candidate would be Minneapolis

lol wut? As a leaf all I know of Minneapolis is sain't fent and the resulting race riots. Are people there really itching for this?

The city is 60 percent white and a bastion of liberalism, with a voting population that supported President Biden by 80 percentage points or more in some areas. In majority white neighborhoods, where homes can sell for $500,000 to $1 million, lawn signs proclaim “Black Lives Matter” and “All Are Welcome Here.”

But how long will they stay up after you send their kid to a shitty school?

The plan also moved magnet schools from whiter neighborhoods to more diverse, centralized locations.

Again how is anyone voting for this?

In southern neighborhoods newly rezoned to North, real estate agents began to hear from families selling their homes.

HA! The rich mayo an is like the nomad, in that if one manages to conquer him he will simply move a mile down the road

At one point, images circulated on social media of a sign outside a coveted elementary school, where the students, 60 percent white, would eventually be assigned to North. The sign depicted a tombstone. “R.I.P.,” it read. “This will destroy our community.”

Based

One big challenge for the district was that families could still choose charter or suburban schools. In one part of the new zone, which includes some of the more affluent neighborhoods, just 15 percent of new families assigned to North decided to attend, according to district figures.

15% of people are going to be livid when they realize they forgot to transfer out their kids

Heather Wulfsberg, who is white, had intended to send her daughter, Isabella, 14, to Southwest High, a racially diverse but majority white public school that is a 10-minute bus ride from their home. The school offers an international baccalaureate program, as well as Japanese, which Isabella studied in middle school. Isabella’s older brother, 18, is a senior there, and Ms. Wulfsberg envisioned her children attending together, her son helping Isabella navigate freshman year. So Ms. Wulfsberg appealed the reassignment to North, citing her son’s attendance at Southwest, and her daughter’s interest in Japanese. (North offers one language, Spanish.) She was also concerned about transportation. There was no direct bus, and Isabella’s commute could take up to 55 minutes. She would also have to walk from the bus stop to school through an area where frequent gun shots are a problem.

Honest question, how do you even compel students to go to school without a direct bus? Is it a citycel thing?

“They were like, ‘Your cover is, you want academics for your kids, and underneath this all, you really are racist,’” she recalled. “It’s a very scary feeling to do a self-examination of yourself and think, ‘Am I?’”

leave it to a white woman.

Today, two in five Black and Latinx students in the United States attend schools where more than 90 percent of students are children of color, while one in five white students goes to a school where more than 90 percent of students look like them, according to the Century Foundation, a progressive think tank.

Not sure why this is a bad thing?

So I’ve noticed there is a lot of people who are extremely insecure about their height, and I think it’s insane!

I believe short men are much more attractive than tall men. I believe around 5’ and 5’5 is the perfect height for men.

For instance, the shorter you are, the easier you are to pick up and have anal s*x. Guys who are tall usually weigh a lot more, and are harder to adjust it properly. In my experience men who are short also tend to be cuter than taller men, though that’s not a fact, it just happens more often that I see a cute small guy.

The weight is a major benefit, the fact that you can be 110 lbs without being super skinny is awesome. I can appreciate a man who is in shape but isn’t going to break my back trying to lift.

In conclusion, be happy about your height

lmao this feels like, they're suffering so you need to suffer too, but we can't guarantee that your suffering can end their suffering.

I think the mayoids might literally publicly lynch the mayor & city council if they tried to do this in the city where I grew up.

I personally kind of agree with this movement because I truly think all people are equal and my family members shouldn't deserve special treatment just because they're related to me. I'm just not that selfish.

Love all the MN drama, that’s my home turf so I feel like I can contribute more

Btw, Minneapolis public schools are known for turning out some of the dumbest motherlovers to ever walk this Earth begging for spare change. To be fair the people affected by this live in the first ring suburbs, which aren’t much better. If you live in the Twin Cities with kids and don’t live in second ring South or West suburbs, you are just asking for stupid offspring

Would the plan bring positive changes for Black families at North High, or as some feared, would they lose claim over the school that they loved?

”it’s my challenge and my honor to do that for Black children, to give Black children the same experience of, ‘you are the center of my world.’”

“Integration never comes up,” said the group’s founding director, Sonya Douglass Horsford. Instead, she said, Black families often express other priorities.

Ms. Friestleben, a mixed-race woman who identifies as Black, knew that her school had its challenges, including a history of struggling enrollment and low test scores. But she was working hard to serve the needs of her students and had little interest in adjusting her focus to woo white families.

“North High is the pride of north side,” said Lynne Crockett, a 1962 graduate and president of the alumni association, who keeps two polar bear stuffed animals on display in her living room. Ms. Crockett, who is Black, is among those who worry that the changes could threaten North High’s identity.

And Ms. Friestleben remains focused on what has been her goal all along: building a school that centers and uplifts children of color.

"We aren't legally allowed to tell mayos to frick off, and we can't stop the goverment from rezoning, but please take the incredibly unsubtle hint that we don't want you here."
