[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kenmore is two schools in one - Latino and non-Latino.  It is remarkably self segregated and how two PTA’s basically.

Obviously the Latino population drags the scores down and typically engage in most of the fights, but that is amongst themselves typically.

No arlington middle school is great - Swanson is mean girl central if you have a daughter.  [/quote]

I’d love to hear more about the social dynamics at Swanson. We are zoned for it but are strongly considering private. [/quote]

I’m not a current Swanson parent, but I personally know the principal from her last time at the helm at Swanson, and she was an excellent leader then and helped to nurture an inclusive school community. That’s why she was brought back to the school following the incidents of bullying.

I’m perfectly confident in Swanson with the current leadership, and the close-knit school communities that the school serves help to keep things in check. If for some reason you still are not satisfied, you can apply for a neighborhood transfer to another middle school to save on private school fees. The deadline is usually in March. [/quote]
I just want to point out that neighborhood transfers are not guaranteed [/quote]
