[quote=Anonymous]I went to a DCPS in the 1980s that was very diverse. I was white, there were a few other white girls per grade, and the rest were a mix of latino/Asian/black (I say black as a more inclusive term because some were from Africa etc). The plurality was black. We all played together wonderfully. It was great. I think the key is to find a place that is racially balanced and small. If the girls in each grade had said "I will be friends only with other white or other latinos or other Asians" they would only have had two friends per class. Some of the kids were poor, others were minorities but middle class. [/quote]
