[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are looking for best public schools, then go for montgomery county. Diversity in schools, as well as in the community, go for montgomery county. I live in PG county and the public schools are fine for my elementary school aged child. He isn't a genius but he isn't below his grade level either, and I'm happy with that. There is zero diversity, being that the school is 93 percent black. We went from montgomery county to pg county and not only was I uncomfortable, but my child was too. We are black by the way. [/quote]

Thank you for the feedback.  Curious about what made you and your child uncomfortable?  If you do not wish to elaborate, I understand.[/quote]

Culture or shall I say, lack of diversity shocked. My child had a friend of every nationality and kept asking why all his classmates and everyone in the neighborhood was black. [/quote]

I see.  Unfortunately from my experience on this website and others along with looking at greatschools and schooldigger, most schools that are mostly black do not have good ratings.  It makes me wonder why.  And thats for any neighborhood or school district not only in the DC area.  I also find the lack of culture or diversity hinders the learning experience at an early age only to be confronted with issues later in life.[/quote]
