[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't want to turn this into a Powell thread, but all that's being said is true from my perspective as well. We're a bi-racial family (not black and white) who has been at the school for 5 years. We've had first hand experience of the various changes taken place at the school. This year my oldest finally had a playdate with whom she's called her BFF for 2 years. She was estatic as well as I.[/quote] Really? Did you try asking her parents before this? Did they say no? I don't understand how a young child can't have a playdate with a schoolmate in 2 years. It might take more effort than usual but?[/quote] NP whose kids were at a different school with many 1st generation Latino families. This was ABSOLUTELY our experience. We asked, repeatedly. It's a cultural difference -- weekends for my child's classmates seemed to be dominated by extended family time and obligations. More parents may work more irregular schedules. It's can be hard to transfer school friendships to relationships out of school. [/quote]
