to educate kids that the streets they live on are screwed up they put a wedge between the kids in this place where they might start to get past it. it might be better for all the kids to know things can be better because where they go to school can be*? or otherwise start to create some small segment where we move forward? of course, maybe that leaves these kids exposed to the reality, but their families can address that concern?
I don't know what the right choice is, but if this is the right choice it's sad.
*of course this school may well be racially fucked up too, despite the posture.
