Neither of us could figure out how that works since we've only seen black people on the campus and his middle school that feeds into Central is probably about 90% black. But, perhaps the statistics are correct and I've just driven by Central at the time of day when all the white kids are inside or have gone home and I got the wrong idea. It's only pertinent because in my post I mentioned that I don't think Central is really integrated now, but it seems that they may be after all.
