[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That sound you hear is me banging my head against the table. It's been said over and over on this thread, by me and by several others, that there is almost no socio-economic diversity in DC private schools. So when your kid befriends minorities at the private school, he or she is making friends kids who do have a different outlook, but minority kids from a lower social class often have a radically different outlook, different tastes in music, different goals in life (especially if college isn't affordable). [b]Your kid will not meet these low-SES kids.[/b][/quote] So, again, explain to me how my children would meet low-SES kids if I sent them to my JKLM instead of private. Seems to me all it would do is lower the number of available OOB slots, of which there are already precious few, by two more.[/quote]
