Would love to hear the experiences of minorities at these all boys' schools.

They vary. It depends on the minority kid. The experience of non minorities vary widely too.

What minority group are we talking about here?

While I can’t speak to particular outcomes or experiences, I’d expect you’d find the highest percentage of non-white students at St. Anselm’s. It also probably has the most socioeconomic diversity of these five schools, too.

Plenty of threads about the anti-black racism at St Albans. The above comment was not necessary

Would love to hear experiences of kids who are black, Indian, Chinese, etc. Essentially, looking for first hand experience from parents who are not Caucasian. Thanks.

No Black person refer to themselves as “Blacks” so this says a lot about you and your ignorant views.

Sith STA, differences are mainly by class vs race. Although there are a group of white wealthy parents who keep their circle tight based on club membership, status, etc.

With any school, go visit!

The diversity was strong at STA’s open house and is nicely represented among their actual students

From what I’ve witnessed at a couple of these schools, socio-economic differences are more divisive than race. The country club kids grew up together and naturally hang out with one another, as opposed to the apartment dwelling kids in the city. I don’t think it is intentional but they just have more in common.

Visible diversity is only skin-deep.

Yeah, they will make sure it looks good at school fairs, open houses, brochures, and things of that sort to keep a good image.

Right now OP in this political climate where MAGA reigns at these schools this is a no go. Why would you put a minority in schools where the general feeling is that minorities are less than and deserve to be second-class citizens?

Above poster is a troll. Most of these schools have a fair number of minority students. Individual experiences will vary across the board.
