[quote=Anonymous]One of the things we struggle with as parents is that we don't want to send the kids to MS and HS where they wouldn't run into or be friends with kids like we were. Both of us are from working class families- but because we grew up in a smaller cities, by the time you got to HS the whole school district was lumped together (municipal level vs county) and being not as pop. dense that meant that the kids from all sides of the tracks were together. Your exposure to kids who had nothing and kids who had new SUVs was all mixed together. Homogeneity is a turn off for us because we were the kids others might be trying to avoid, maybe not FARMS, but not much more in terms of resources.[/quote]
