[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - thanks, all!  I'm actually wondering more about Center City than KIPP specifically.  CC is in our neighborhood, has good scores, and gets good reviews (aside from the facilities) here.  But was a little taken aback that the percent of caucasian/white kids is listed as 0%.  Then second guessed my surprise, then thought about it more, still didn't know what to think, and posted here.  Does CC have the same model as KIPP?  I would definitely want to talk to parents and visit before making any decisions, but just wanted to get feedback on the experience of being at a 0% caucasian school versus 10-15% school.  [/quote]

All I can say is that you should visit both schools and see what you think about the vibe and talk to parents.  It would be silly to miss out on a great school in your neighborhood just due to demographics.  [/quote]

As PP poster said go and see, personally I wouldn't send any kid to either school regardless of race![/quote]
