      I went to three high schools and my senior year was at the self advertized "most diverse school in the nation" (some Nat Geo article a few years back). We thought it would be a good fit because Department of Defense schools overseas are very diverse and everyone gets along well.

      Well, boy did I learn a thing or two about Erica society (and Northern Virginia) that year.

      The next time I saw segregation at this stark between ethnic groups was 5 years later at the fault line between Pashtun and Tajiks in Afghanistan

      They patted themselves on the back for their diversity, but they had stratified themselves so that there was this huge ESL population at the bottom and the white/indian/East Asian kids who had been on an advanced track since middle school that I couldn't break into on merit.

      They didn't recognize my grades because no other school system could possibly be as hard as theirs. Everyone hated each other or were at best indifferent, and no multiethnic friend groups outside of the tight-knit group of advanced kids in the IB program.

      They retroactively lowered my GPA. I applied to college based off my Junior Year transcripts and left out senior year. Got into Villanova, GA Tech, and West Point.

      The only IB class they let me in was an environmental science class where we watched An Inconvenient Truth unironically in 2008

      There was a class called Thoughts and Ideas or something that was part of the IB curriculum that I wasn't allowed to take. One of the kids at lunch told me the teacher had them read Thomas Aquinas and highlight all the logical fallacies as an exercise

          If the intent is to get a bunch of teenagers completely unfamiliar with the history of Western thought to think it's all bunk, then sure. I suspect the resulting worldview is the kind that tears down statues of people the understand. Maybe this is just my own very emotional bias.

          Teaching intellectual humility is more important at that age than whatever the hell the teacher was trying to do.
