[quote=Anonymous]When we decided where to live we looked for a community with amenities. Shops, parks, library, things to walk to etc. We also asked about different school clusters. We wanted a school with a good administration, few discipline issues and an active parent community. At no time did we consider race but now many years later I recognize that many of the characteristics we searched for were more likely to be found in the three clusters that ended up in our "we will be happy if we can find a decent house we can afford in any of these clusters". They were WJ, Blair and Einstein. What all these schools have in common is large numbers of highly educated families (of all races) who care about their child's education. So I guess you can value diversity but still want to live near and send your child to school with people who share the same values regardless of race. I would not be happy if MCPS started bussing my kids around to a school cluster I did not select. [/quote]
