Asians don't really count as diversity in DC.[/quote]

WTF?  My Asian kid definitely notices the small percentage in her school.  It counts to her.  [/quote]

The PP was being glib, presumably noting how in DC, discussions of diversity often seem to focus on AA-white dynamics. Most of us are quite aware that the community  includes people of many ethnicities, citizenships, etc.[/quote]

Agree the PP was being sarcastic/glib. But I'm going to insert some data anyway.

Across all public school students in DC (charters + DCPS)

68% of students are black
10% white
18% Latino
1.6% are Asian.

A few specific schools with larger percentages of Asian students include (and a few that people will ask about are below). NOTE: this isn't meant to be comprehensive

[b]Elementary / Pk-8[/b]
Thomson 15%
Murch 10.5%
YY 10%
Ross 9.4%
Mann 7.4%
Stoddert 6.4%
SWW@FS 6.8%

[b]Middle/High Schools[/b]
Hardy 10.4%
BASIS 8.4%
Washington Latin middle 5.5%
BASIS 8.4%
Wilson High School 6.5%
SWW high school 5.8%
Deal 4.6%
DCI 2.7%
[/quote]

Adding Seaton, which is 13%[/quote]
