Best DC Privates for Diversity

[Anonymous]

I know most of them now have DEI directors but which ones walk the walk and which ones are just doing it for show?

All of the top DC privates have rich kids of every color. You’re fine.

Yes, true diversity at SJC. Different colors of very wealthy at many others.

There isn't true diversity at any, just like PP said rich or middle-high income kids in ever color. They aren't pulling kids who are in true need like foods stamps and cash assistance.

Spare me, none of them have a tenth the diversity of a small town public school

Find me the ones that enroll the kids of top politicians alongside special needs, vocational students, and kids living in poverty who will likely drop out a couple years into puberty (drop out of school, not drop out of puberty)

In other words, you are only familiar with a small handful of private schools.

Are you excluding Catholic schools?

Wouldn’t vocational students be interested in a different program of study than that offered at most private schools?

And students living in poverty can be a tough demographic to reach. Even public option schools - which are totally free and often will provide transportation- can’t capture this demographic in equal measure to the public neighborhood schools. It’s just not easy.

Also, there are plenty of kids at SJC where the parents are working extra jobs to pay tuition. Yet there are other kids who come from incredibly wealthy families.

DC are in a small town public school. It’s as White as snow. If OP wants racial diversity, you couldn’t be more wrong. There is very little diversity in small towns; period.

+1 PP says "at any" as if PP has experience with all.

It’s all selective diversity.
