Goldfish: I can't speak for JP, but if the result of "economic integration" is that the rich kids don't learn, then the rich kids will go elsewhere. You end up with the same class stratification, just through a different route, but also cause other problems, such as losing the middle class and wealthy parents to other jurisdictions. Montgomery, Fairfax and Howard Counties thrive on the educational dysfunction of DC and Baltimore Public Schools.

The primary goal of the education department should be education. Integration enriches that education. But it seems to be a substitute for quality.
