[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I ran the idea of Bannekar past my bi-racial child who has attended schools that are more majority non-white (60/40) split and her reaction was that [b]she would not want to go to a school where everyone was non-white.[/b] She thought it would be weird. It's probably a good idea to actually ask your kid how they might feel about this experience before getting too vested. As far as academics, my preliminary look at it, seemed that it was for kids who excelled in the DC public schools. But what exactly does that mean? I think that is still below kids who excelled in say Fairfax or Arlington. So while it's likely the best of the best of DC school students, that's a tough sell to me as a parent. [/quote] Out of curiosity, how would your daughter feel about attending a school that is almost exclusively white? [/quote]
