How does a healthy school translate to a healthy education? In at least some of the magnet programs, the schools are sgregated, so even though the schools are healthy, the classrooms are NOT. You have the rich magnet classes with very little F&R population and you have the regular school classes with a very high F&R pop;ulation and the two student bodies never interact. How is this integration within the classroom? What is the root cause of the problems in these high F&R schools? if it is NOT the F&R population, then this policy is totally a waste. IF it is a root cause, how does putting them on a bus for a 1 1/2 hour ride each way help them?
