[quote=Anonymous]If you want a good Asian continent at a DCP school OP you are going to have to high-tail it to the burbs.  You might want to deal with this reality sooner rather than later.   Even DC privates attract very few Asians -we've made the rounds.  I'm an Asian immigrant who doesn't relate to what can seem like PC thinking on the part of ultra liberal white parents and teachers at my children's EotP ES.  I have an easier time talking to high-ses AA parents.  I don't see either BASIS or Deal attracting many Asians for a long time, although a few more will surely come with each passing year as gentrification continues apace.  Asian parents see majority AA at a school and quietly steer clear if they have decent options.  They aren't missed in DCPS or DC Charter for their "racist" views and are rarely comfortable asserting themselves on race-related academic issues.   Diverity doesn't do it for them; they just want their kids to crack great colleges.  That, in a nutshell, is why YY and BASIS have so few and Rockville, Potomac and Takoma Park so many.\
