[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP: My DC was one of a handful of white students at a DCPS application only HS which was DC's choice. DC had a great education, teachers and made friends. We were always surprised that more white families were not sending their kids to the school. Thank you for this post and for your willingness to engage people on really looking beyond color in their school choice. [/quote] At private schools diversity is a selling point, not an avoiding point. What about education? We toured our local public and it just felt like a day care. Not a place where children inquire. I find it also not honest to proudly mingle with all social classes and than abandon ship when things get harder aka middle school. The poor don't have that option but the well off saved money in the early years claiming "we tried public". Op seems very honest about her approach though. [/quote]
