The city's latest effort to diversify public schools is the most dramatic yet.
The goal is end segregation across the 11 middle schools of Brooklyn District 15, which includes Park Slope, Red Hook, Sunset Park, and Carroll Gardens.
"I am here to formally approve the District 15 diversity plan. Congratulations to all of you," Mayor Bill de Blasio said at a press conference Thursday.
The plan will abolish merit-based admissions, ending a system that weighed student grades and test scores and resulted in three schools having large concentrations of white and Asian students.
Instead, beginning next September, half of the seats for entering sixth graders at each school will be set aside for students with special needs, who are learning English, or who come from low-income families.

ALL BOROUGHS
A BROOKLYN SCHOOL DISTRICT WILL ABOLISH MERIT-BASED ADMISSIONS IN DESEGREGATION EFFORT
By Lindsey Christ | September 20, 2018 @7:33 PM
The city's latest effort to diversify public schools is the most dramatic yet.
The goal is end segregation across the 11 middle schools of Brooklyn District 15, which includes Park Slope, Red Hook, Sunset Park, and Carroll Gardens.
"I am here to formally approve the District 15 diversity plan. Congratulations to all of you," Mayor Bill de Blasio said at a press conference Thursday.
The plan will abolish merit-based admissions, ending a system that weighed student grades and test scores and resulted in three schools having large concentrations of white and Asian students.
Instead, beginning next September, half of the seats for entering sixth graders at each school will be set aside for students with special needs, who are learning English, or who come from low-income families.
"Off Topic/On Politics" podcast: Breaking down challenges to New York City's segregated schools
"The current District 15 middle school admissions process presents itself as a system of choice and meritocracy, but it functions as a system for hoarding privilege," Brooklyn City Councilman Brad Lander said.
This is the third district-wide integration plan, after efforts on the Lower East and Upper West Sides.
Officials hope this one increases momentum to diversify other districts where white and Asian students tend to be concentrated in the higher-performing schools.
It was the first diversity announcement that the mayor attended, and it was held at MS 51 — not-so-coincidentally, the school his two children attended and one set to be most affected by the changes.
But the proposal did not come from City Hall; it was developed by parents and local elected leaders, who have been pushing for integration for years.
"Why this plan is so powerful is that it was created by this community for this community," de Blasio said. "This is truly an expression of grassroots leadership."
The mayor says he believes the best way to integrate schools is through parent-led efforts like this, although it's unclear whether parents in other communities would be as supportive as those in the Brooklyn district.
This is a new area of focus for de Blasio. Despite his "Tale of Two Cities" campaign slogan five years ago, during his first term as mayor he shied away from talking about segregation or integration in city schools. In fact, he didn't even use those words, instead choosing to call it a diversity issue.
The mayor says the city will earmarks $2 million toward other districts willing to work out similar proposals.

"Why this plan is so powerful is that it was created by this community for this community," de Blasio said.
It's definitely powerful. We'll see what unfolds.

This is literally AA for dumbs.

i live in one of these neighborhoods. most people except the park slope true believers move out to the suburbs when the kids hit 5-6 years old.
block parties here are like little kid birthday parties. pretty weird vibe.

ever think of the signal it sends to equate removing merit-based standards with "desegregation"?
Talk about the soft bigotry of low expectations.

no, i don't
however, i don't think society is best served by keeping these two groups segregated from each other
i might be wrong. one bad apple, mismatch theory, etc
i just would prefer that the best of the disadvantaged are given a fair shot to demonstrate it. that isn't going to happen your way

"diversify" should be replaced with "blacken"
The city's latest effort to blacken public schools is the most dramatic yet.
Officials hope this one increases momentum to blacken other districts where white and Asian students tend to be concentrated in the higher-performing schools.

haha, nice
race is not the problem
money is not the problem
i believe the problem is basically two-fold
1. culture, perhaps more specifically inner-city black culture
2. school culture, more specifically the handcuffed, bitchass pussy culture that prevents schools from using better techniques to deal with problem children
being black doesn't cause any problems. being subjected to inner-city black culture does

very interesting. blacks make up about 17% of the military, but 60% are disqualified for iq
which means the military must be cornering the market for smart, good (non-criminal), black men
i've never heard this before, but it could be a contributing reason to racism in the general population who don't run into military types in most areas. military types congregate in the base towns and surrounding areas

To be fair, the curriculum will be enriched in other ways:
Require a plan on how to incorporate a cultural & ethnic studies curriculum through existing classes & advisory programs; providing opportunities for students to learn about different social & cultural topics relevant to NYC students for all D15 middle school students.The curriculum should focus on African, Latinx, Asian, Middle Eastern & Native heritage people in NYC schools as well as the intersections with gender, LGBTQ/ GNC, religious, disability diversity, while highlighting their contributions to society. Additionally, the curriculum will highlight the vast historical contributions of non-white groups & seek to dispel the many non-truths/ lies related to American & World History.

does anyone really know what it's like to be essentially a rich white kid in a majority minority school in a city in the north?
like maybe it's not bad.
