I think the woodson suicide culture should give everyone pause. [/quote]

Couldn't agree more.  By "enough" diversity, I mean that the students at West Springfield, Robinson, and Lake Braddock come from a much broader pool of social, economic, religious, and ethnic groups than Woodson.  Meaning most students have a better chance of finding their niche at those schools.  Are you a super high-achieving type-A overscheduled Captain America type?  You'll find some at those three schools.  Are you a lower-income, apartment dwelling student with high academic potential but less involved parents?  You'll find some at those three schools.  Are you from a non-christian religion and want to dress according to your religion?  You'll fit in at those three schools.  Are you an average middle-class student who doesn't really care about being the best and just want to get through school, go to college, and do your thing?  Plenty of people like you.

Diversity is not always code for skin color.  It is EXACTLY that kind of thinking that turns people off to schools like Woodson.  And probably makes the students kill themselves. [/quote]
