[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m only the parent of a 10 year old and younger kids but from what I’ve read the answer is no. Our child goes to a Title I School. The school has a GT magnet program, arts and music and media, newly renovated, diverse, safe decent testing scores for all races. We wanted our kids to be comfortable with all kinds of people and also to go to a neighborhood school. I have never regretted our choice. DH and I are both employed and went to college and have friends in the school district who are both more and less educated than we are.

I don’t have a link but I think parent education level and resources are the biggest predictors of a child’s level of academic achievement.[/quote]

Have you really met people uncomfortable to work or interact with people of different socioeconomic backgrounds? How is this a thing that is fixed by going to a struggling high school? OP, as a college age engineer do you regularly hang out with electricians or plumbers that aren’t your neighbors?[/quote]
