The school district is top 5 in the state and the neighborhood is great with plenty of kids his age around.
When I say majority white it’s 59% white. So it’s not like he the only minority in there.
Bet, it's a majority white school but somewhat diverse. I can dig that...
I would never voluntarily place my kids in a majority non-black school or neighborhood that had no diversity. You used to live in Memphis, right? My 8th grade school year was 2002-03, believe it or not Southaven just 20 years ago was 80%+ white. I went to Southaven Middle for a year, I want to say the school at the time was around 85% white, 12% black, the rest "other". It was a very white place and one of the more miserable school experiences of my upbringing...
Getting beat up that bad in kindergarten is wild. Regardless of the situation they need to go talk to admin, sound like they got a sadistic demon child in the building
I went to all white school for a couple of years and there were lil micro aggressions like kids saying that was me when we watched cop and 1/2 in class but nothing beyond that. Not caping for cacs but the white schools I went to were way more safe than the black ones
, could just be my city though. You got to teach your kid how to fight and stand up to bullies and act fast if shyt get this serious
I went to predominantly Hispanic schools in California, then mostly white schools but with some diversity in Virginia. Then the whitest place I ever was, was Southaven in suburban Memphis...
It's funny because the demographics have flipped like a muhfukka there now...
My first high school was in Virginia, was about 55/35 white/black, then my second high school in NC was around 86/8 black/white. Definitely a different cultural experience as I'd never been in any school that was mostly black, or even 40% black...
There's issues with any type of school but I know this, any place where any non-black race has majority numbers and minimal diversity, is not for me and I wouldn't choose it for my children. I'll take the cultural issues from an 86% black school or a racially blended/mixed school any day, over the issues you get from a not diverse school where non-blacks (any non-black, not just whites) are the Super majority. fukk all that...
