[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid graduated from Banneker. You should search "Banneker DC Urbanmom" on google and you'll see the many discussions there have been on this board. My opinion? It's not a top choice here because Banneker is 2% White. Folks aren't willing to have their child be an "only". [/quote]I agree. Many White folks on DCUM won't even consider it. My kid went through the process, applied, and didn't get accepted. I would have been happy for her to go there if that was what she wanted. She didn't and she told them basically that she couldn't handle the pressure of the work in her interview, so it wasn't surprising that they turned her down. I get that maybe it's not the right school for your kid but I don't get ignoring the school completely. I think race plays a big role. [/quote]
