A while ago, there was an incident involving some black students.  The Principal at Churchill apparently told the non-black parents not to worry because it was black on black violence.  So, apparently, they are not that well integrated.[/quote]

I agree that was an awful thing for the principal to say, and I don't believe she ever sufficiently apologized.

And to the poster that insists these schools are diverse, you are so funny in your persistence that those are considered diverse schools.[/quote]

I am that poster, and yes I am very happy with the diversity in my Churchill school district.       My kid's best friends are immigrants from Iran, Ethiopia and China.     She socializes with Muslims and Sikhs along with Catholics, Jews, and 
Protestants.     And according to MCPS statistics one out of six students is African-American or hispanic.

What I find funny is how someone from Argentina is supposed to make the school diverse, but someone from the poorer country of Portugal does not.     Again, nothing against Latin Americans but why are they singled out among all countries of the World as making a school diverse?
