[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. There is no need for a snooty response here. I am worried about diversity as i do not want my kid to be the only [u]colored [/u]kid between 100 white kids. Someone who hasnt been a minority would never understand that. About living in Mclean, yes, it not very diverse but diverse enough in some pockets. and we make enough money to afford living here, so why not. i wish the PP was concentrating on talking about class ize, quality of teaching, PTA rather than downplaying the diversity issue[/quote] Actually, the PP makes a good point even though you think it's "snooty". (Also...Colored? Really?) We're AA, and are pretty aware of how "diverse" McLean is. THe standard joke in our family is that it must be us and the Powells, at least on this side of McLean. If your kid is "colored", he/she will stand out. The rest of us are just minorites of some sort.[/quote]
