[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Janney is a lot more like Montgomery County schools than other city schools -- full of strivers -- but with a pitiful level of diversity. I think that's the hardest thing to take about Janney and why I sent my children to private even though I was IB there. The school is HUGE by DC standards and the vast majority of the kids are white. [/quote] What school (or general category of school) did you send your children to, PP? Most private schools that I've seen in Upper NW are full of upper-middle class and rich folks with a few scholarship kids in the mix. You get more racial diversity that JKLMM but in some ways less SES diversity (barbell effect). Either way, whether you go to JKLMM or private, you are still sending your kids to a relatively non-diverse school. (Some of the catholics have more SES diversity but have their own issues...)
