My daughter is in her second year at a predominantly white high school--86% white, 4% black and 6% hispanic, I believe. The school district numbers are about the same. She has had no problems that I know of because of this. She is very happy there and has made many friends of all races, active in sports, and has made excellent grades as well.

I can't say for sure that black schools underperform white schools, but I know that from my stepson's (Chicago south suburban public school--95% black) and cousin's (Chicago Public School-2 whites) reactions when they saw her school and others here, and they saw the course and activities offerings, they were envious and wanted to move here with us in Florida.

I think to make a fair comparison, you have to compare similar schools. Inner City schools--white vs black vs. hispanic. Suburban schools--compare groups. And so forth.
