THE FIVE SCHOOLS OF SEWANHAKA SCHOOL DISTRICT AND HOW THEY ARE SOMEWHAT SEGARATED
There are five schools that make up the Sewanhaka school district and they are all very different. there is floral park memorial high school, new Hyde park high school, Carey high school, Elmont memorial high school and Sewanhaka high school. i am writing this to discuss how these schools are somewhat segregated i personally know this because i attended floral park memorial high school which was an predominantly white high school. i personally think that there are certain factors that are contributing to this problem the first one would be the rules and regulations that a student and their families have to obey by to attend a certain school and another reason is the location of certain schools. Elmont memorial high school is one of the schools that are predominantly black i believe it is this was because where the school is located is closer to queens. factors like this is what makes schools segregated.
Proposal: To fix this problem i believe that the school district should expand the distant for kids to attend schools that they want. living is a certain location could prevent a student from attending a school that they maybe want to go to.
