[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you're going to have a bunch of non-Black people responding to what they think the experiences of Black students are.  [/quote]

This feels potentially true (white Maury parent here).  Hope we are wrong though and you get helpful answers.  In case not and in case helpful, my kid in 5th has a diverse friend group and when I see them interact in their peer group it all seems focused on their common interests, senses of humor, etc.  From what I can see, their experience isn't an outlier.  The teaching staff is also diverse.  And I'm not sure about going on to Eliot Hine MS but almost all the kids in my kid's class are going there.  Hope parents with direct experiences respond and this helps bump up your question![/quote]

Staff is diverse but I think all of the old-school black teachers that had been there through many iterations are all or almost all retired now … to the extent *experienced* black teachers and admins are on the wish list OP would probably find more at a T1 school. [/quote]
