[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What race is your kid? What race are the tormentors? I have heard Indian-American kids teasing other Indian-American kids in ES and MS about magnet programs. MS is especially toxic. [/quote] This toxicity comes from the parents and their biases.[/quote] Well, as OP mentioned the race(s) involved - White, Hispanic and Asian - it seems that it is very common. Best course of action would be to make a stink about it - teacher, administrator, counselor and PTA. This behavior is not to be tolerated. In my DC's school - PTA, admin, parents would send out emails on parent groups and remind kids to not share results or tease one another. before the results came out. This one email reminder saw that no such meanness happened. It can change the culture of the school. [/quote] My son is at McNair, which has a large Indian population. He is in AAP and has complained of similar issues.[/quote]
