[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems like the school could be a hidden gem... I dont see much talk about it on the boards... yet I recently went to an awards event where several students from DuVal had been accepted to some of the top ivies and also very successful in STEM competitions. [b]Why no talk of it here?[/b][/quote] Honestly, because white families don't want to send their kid to a highschool with 2% white kids but they are OK with sending their kids to a school with 12% white kids. People are prejudiced even if they aren't racist. Their subconscious tells them that it isn't as good of a program because it is 95% non-white. Hopefully, one day that will change. I've heard good very things about DuVal's Aerospace program l but my kids aren't really STEM focused. We are going to try the IB program at Parkdale if they don't get into one of the Middle College programs. [/quote]
