[quote=Anonymous]OP - I'd suggest looking at the demographic breakdown for the school, grade and number of classes (if that is available, not sure). In some schools that are smaller in the W clusters the ES schools may only 2 sections per grade so if you see 10-20 AA students then you know your son won't be the only AA in a class. DD went to an ES with a lower AA% but three of her closet friends are black - one AA, one African, and one Jamaican. Out of 70 kids about 15 were African, AA, bi-racial or racially black but from another country like France etc. In my son's class which was smaller - only two sections because there were barely 60 kids in the grade there were fewer AA kids but some in each class. Several of his friends are black and DS has been in class with all the kids on different years.

Commuting from the western side or Bethesda would be better to Arlington. I can't imagine commuting to Arlington from Silver Spring.

I don't much about BCC but it may be more diverse because there are more international families. [/quote]
