Schools Will See the Changes Last

Dennis Prager has the two likely paths down. But IMHO, the grammar schools and high schools of traditionally middle class neighborhoods will be the real test of social integration or social division. And until it reaches the middle class neighborhoods, the immigrant neighborhoods will grow out of sight and out of mind.

By the time there is an impact on the traditional middle class schools (my guess by 2015), the blind eye will have become accustomed to the burgeoning minority as if it were an invisible presence. Will that be too late to react? -- Probably.
