[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stay best to Loiederman and you can always change their mind.  The kids in the arts program generally self-segregate.  Academics are good at Loiederman but socially it can be tuff.  Loiederman has an accelerated math track.[/quote]

This is OP -- thanks, that's useful. Excuse my ignorance, but I thought there wasn't a separate arts program -- don't all students take additional arts courses? Or is that that they are available but not mandatory? Also, can you elaborate a bit on the social aspect and the math track? [/quote]

Kids are offered electives. They have some non-arts electives but primary focus is arts.  However, the kids there for arts generally self segregate as do their families.  All kids can take all classes.  It's not just for the lottery in kids.  Math at least the past few years has allowed kids to start Algebra in 6th.  The math teachers are very good.  These  programs are at these three schools to bring in diversity.  [/quote]
