[quote=Anonymous]The 3rd grade at Maury expanded as well. We are a white middle class family who just switched this year from Maury to Brent due to specific needs on the part of one of our children. So, on the surface of things, we seem to have left Maury thereby decreasing the white/middle class population in the upper grades, but we left for another DCPS. The 3rd grade classes at Brent are definitely more integrated than at Maury -- about 80/20 at Maury and more like 60/40 at Brent (?) with the higher number being African American. Both are great schools and this 3rd grade's test scores are going to show the results of the upswing of middle class parents (of any hue) staying in these schools. There are a bunch of really smart kids in both 3rd grades! Also, BTW, at Maury MORE white students joined the current 3rd grade class after PS/PK, as opposed to white students dropping out. [/quote]
