[quote=Anonymous]OP, the program at our center is pretty diverse though there are few African-American kids (but the local area the center serves has few African-American families living in it, so the school is reflecting that fact). I wanted to add, as parent of an older kid, that you'll find your child is going to be fine whatever the makeup of his classes. That makeup will change and change again over the years, and you cannot choose or even influence it -- you might have some choice now, at the start of AAP, but after that you really can't choose his schools or classes based on this, and it's out of your hands. I definitely would not keep a kid out of AAP just because of concern that he might not have many peers who look like him; from what I have seen (and I spend a lot of time in our school volunteering and working directly with AAP kids), kids really don't focus on this.[/quote]
