[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In APS, the experience varies. Kids in North Arlington will have a very different experience than in South. My kid (not black) attends Drew and there's many African American teachers and administrators. Lots of black and brown students and a really low teacher/student ratio. There's lots of books featuring children and wall displays highlight successful minority engineers. It's a high needs school that has low test scores, but my kid has learned so much and made huge growth. At school, my kids seem to have no problem making friends across racial/religious lines. I haven't heard of any bias and race is definitely discussed in the classroom. [/quote] There are also shootings in front of the school on the regular[/quote]
