Thankfully, the charter school system has come in to save the day. My kids (Kindergarten and 1st Grade) go to an Arts based charter school. They're exposed to stuff that even the suburban kids don't have access to. And the school itself bought an unused school building from the bordering suburban district. So the kids aren't even in the city school system what so ever. That's a plus in my book.

My kids friends are all black. I had little black kids running around my house all weekend. I like that they don't let color get in the way of their lives.
