[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does the PP mean?[/quote] white?[/quote] It is among the least diverse high-schools in the county.[/quote] I have heard many W parents say this. It's ironic, given that W schools are also among the least diverse in the county, assuming one counts Asians as not diverse, because Poolesville is one third Asian. I think there is a classism element to this criticism. There is a misperception of Poolesville as a community being a backward redneck place, but somehow it's OK to segregate yourself in Bethesda or Chevy Chase with other UMC white people. Poolesville has a lot of well educated families working in MoCo and the 270 tech corridor, people with Ph.D.s, etc.[/quote]
