[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I heard that the school has declined in quality. To be very frank, when you look at the demographics of the school leadership and faculty it is different than the dominate population of UP. I wonder if that has something to do with more high SES families looking elsewhere which hurts the school. [/quote] I'm confused. Are you implying that high SES white parents don't want their kids educated in a school with primarily black teachers and leadership? +1 to the poster that suggested checking on MD State Report Card. I wouldn't worry about 1 move up/down in Great Schools, but if there's a downward trend on the report card, that would be a greater cause for concern. I didn't check, so I don't know anything about the trends of UPES, though I know parents with children there and they are all still very happy. One recently turned down a Glenarden placement in order to keep her daughter at UPES. [/quote]
