Segregated schools make no sense

When we hear about the latest movement in education it just makes you want to know why they want to change back to a segregated school.

To have a faith based schools that are for black students only in Toronto or anywhere does not make sense. I thought that we are all about integrating our systems and having everyone on the same plain regarding opportunities to learn and grow.

What about the money and the time that busing these children all over comes to?

Teachers too must be invigorated to teach and inspire the youth of today to achieve at any school that they teach.

Why must we always go back to what a minority wants in this country and not what the majority needs and what is right?

What we should be doing is teaching more Canadian history to our students so that they know more about Canada. This is something that is needed, not faithbased schooling. Quebec is way ahead in this regards.
