[quote=Anonymous]OP.  I am a minority parent at STA.  It is unrealistic to expect any school to be free from prejudice. When I myself grew up, I faced far more prejudices, not racism, than what has been posted on Instagram. The prejudices I experienced were not racism because my classmates and I are all of the same race. Yet, I experienced blatant, in-my-face discrimination because of my poor family background. Meanwhile, I also had teachers and classmates who were welcome and supportive.  No matter where you go, there are always bad apples even if the institution is welcome and inclusive.  My attitude was to study hard and to be an outstanding student, realizing that my best asset is my intellect. Today, my classmates in elementary and middle school cannot even dream of my achievements. I do not blame my classmates, as they are humans with flaws. No one is perfect and without prejudice.  Prejudices between people of the same race had always existed. How can any one to expect prejudice between people of different color to not exist?  [/quote]
