[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All those choosing diversity as the most important factor in their school choice fall into one of these categories: 1. White DCC parents trying to justify sending their kids to the 95% minority Kennedy, 92% Wheaton, 87% minority Northwood, etc. 2. Minority DCC parents who are doing everything they can to defend their school which has average SAT scores lower than the MoCo average (Kennedy, wheaton, Northwood, Einstein, non-magnet Blair). Kennedy Wheaton and Northwood have avg SAT scores lower than the national average so they need even greater defending. 3. Minority parents who would never send their kids to a high SES school because they don't want their children around too many white kids. 4. White parents who are "more evolved" than other whites so they are pushing this diversity thing while sending THEIR kids to private school. Of course, the only reason their child is in private school is because of a learning disability, religion, sports, music, art, etc, etc. Otherwise, it would be wonderful for their child to go to Kennedy.[/quote] Does this blow your mind? Wheaton won the Maryland Science Bowl competition this month, beating 47 teams from throughout Maryland. But your kid won't be on that team, because you aim higher than Wheaton. http://www.thesentinel.com/mont/news/local/item/6309-wheaton-high-school-wins-maryland-science-bowl[/quote] I don't think anyone disagrees that the small Wheaton magnet program is excellent.[/quote]
