[quote=Anonymous]OP here. You know, it's not just that the school has very few white students. There's also the fact that there is no PTA (there was a PTA when we moved here!), the school is 80% FARMS (up from around 50% when we moved here!!), and the building is beat up looking. I feel like despite the good reviews online (which are old), and the good test scores (and I have been looking carefully at test scores from schools around the county and what counts as "good" seems awfully depressing), there are quite a few red flags here, which has me worried and which is why I posted. On the one hand, I feel pretty strongly that early elementary is about the basics, but on the other, the introduction to school is critical. I think it is kind of important that a school be bright, inviting, diverse (both racially and economically). The nearest private school is St. Matthias, which does not have the best reviews but has recently begun a Spanish Immersion program. UGH.[/quote]
