[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AA mom raising 2 black boys and looking to move to MoCo from DC. Which schools would other AA parents recommend? We don’t want our boys to be one of the only in their classrooms and appreciate diversity in students and staff. Also being mindful of how AA children especially boys are treated in the school system, looking for schools that will nourish our children with love and education. May be a long shot here but please share below! (Elementary - high school)[/quote] Are you single or married? I am an AA teacher and you will need to think about the social components of well-regarded schools. Many times some families do not invite children who have single parents on play dates or outside of school social activities because they worry that single parents are not responsible. Just as you wouldn't invite parents of children who are really young, immature, undisciplined, etc. I would also suggest ensuring that you do not attend a high ESOL school population as your children's needs will not be met.
