[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Black MCPS parent here. A lot of good comments said so far. One consideration is that even in diverse or majority minority schools, your child may experience racism and bullying on the basis of their skin color or ethnicity, especially if your child is Black American (non-immigrant).

[b]Long story short, I don’t believe you will find a school in MCPS that will go above and beyond to protect your boy, without a fair amount of pushing and engagement on your part. You will need to be an advocate, actively engaged with school leadership and PTA, and with each teacher individually to foster that level of support and to establish accountability channels. We do it and it’s a lot of work, but it works.

This right here is why previous pps mentioned private. I would again suggest private.

I would also ask if your son is magnet caliber intelligent because that is the only way I'd suggest Blair. Einstein could be a good option. Otherwise, despite naysayers, the W schools are the only ones left with quality education for anyone - black, white, brown or purple. Wooton has some "race" incidents recently. Look up those threads or news for details.

Good luck OP![/quote]
Black boys in Silver spring have better outcomes on average. [/quote]
