[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think anyone here said anything about race. I certainly wouldn't want to send my kids to Damascus High School and isn't that all white kids? Race doesn't have anything to do with how RM is but funny how everyone always jumps the gun at that. It is not a top school which is why it was picked to have the IB program in it. This isn't rocket science here. The magnet and IB programs go in the lower performing schools. Lower performing schools = [b]more kids that don't give a crap vs that do and more uninvolved parents[/b] than involved. People give RM all these great grades and actually move into the area thinking it is a great school. Take out the IB and many other MCP high schools blow it away. [/quote] Not necessarily. Maybe more kids who haven't had the same advantageous, language-rich upbringing and more parents who work two jobs to support their families and don't have a cultural orientation towards involvement in school.
