[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Churchill has always seemed majority Asian to me. 
Our friends left their local elementary school which was 80%+ asian and cliquey. [/quote]

It's interesting that you consider 32% to be majority Asian-American. The plurality demographic group at Churchill is non-Hispanic white, at 43%.

While we're at it, let's look at the elementary schools in the Churchill cluster:

Bells Mill: 27% Asian-American, 8% 2+, 41% non-Hispanic white
Seven Locks: 26% Asian-American, [u]<[/u]5% 2+, 49% non-Hispanic white
Beverly Farms: 30% Asian-American, 9% 2+, 45% non-Hispanic white
Potomac: 33% Asian-American, 11% 2+, 39% non-Hispanic white
Wayside: 41% Asian-American, 6% 2+, 38% non-Hispanic white[/quote]

Asian families go where the good schools are. Churchill is an excellent school. As a PP noted, accurately, there is a decent amount of middle-class housing in Potomac that is a factor too.[/quote]
Stereotype much?  :roll: [/quote]

Pretty sure the stats posted above back this up, no? [/quote]

Not really. There are several other schools with higher percentages of Asian students:
Stone Mill 49.1%
Lakewood 48.6%
Snowden Farm 46.7%
Diamond 46.4%
Travilah 44.3%
Cedar Grove 39.6%
Cold Spring 39%
Matsunaga 38.8%
Wilson Wims 37.3%
Clarksburg 35.5%
Fallsmead 34.4%
