Tupac Shakur, on his time at Baltimore School for the Arts
In this video, he described his alma mater as a school mostly for "white kids and rich minorities" when he was a student in the late 80s. He said his friends in neighborhood high schools were deprived of a good education while he was being exposed to Shakespeare and Broadway plays. "I would've been a totally different person had I not been exposed to these things," he said.

It's funny how some things never change. BSFA can still be considered a school for "white kids and rich minorities," most of whom don't reside in Baltimore City, yet consume the city's resources.

I don't doubt that are a few county kids who sneak into the good city schools, but to claim that it's "most" is quite a claim. Do you have any evidence to support that accusation?

It does not matter what race these kids are. BSFA allowes students from other counties to come to their school. They also should not be accused of consuming the cities resources because donations to this school are made by "rich minorities"
