[quote=Anonymous]I have a 1st grade student at Glebe. First off, we have been happy with the school so far and I would hardly say it is a bad school. However, I know that sometimes it is perceived that way and part of the reason for that is because it has traditionally been one of the more diverse schools and has more students than the other N. Arlington schools who are from less affluent families. However, for better or for worse, that is definitely changing at Glebe. In my son's class there are 19 students. He had one African American student in the class at the beginning of the year, but he moved to Maryland. His class now has one Hispanic girl and the rest is white. This is true of many of the K and 1 classes in the school. I would also add that the diversity I do see is generally not African American. There are quite a few SE Asian students and some Hispanic students. In general, there really aren't a lot of African Americans in N. Arlington at all except for that one area off Lee Highway mentioned above, but that is also changing to be less diverse. I do feel like I see a lot of Asian families (Korean, Indian, etc) coming into the area. We also have a fairly large Mongolian population. [/quote]
