[quote=Anonymous]I don't know about KIPP specifically. But I can tell you about my experience as the only white kid in my elementary school (from k-4th). I think it was fine through 2nd grade, but it started to get stressful after that. I got teased for it, and there was no way to avoid just generally standing out even though I had friends and was never outright bullied. I just didn't want that much attention all the time. I was pretty relieved when I switched to a much more diverse school in 5th (as in a little of everthing - some white kids, some Latinos, Asian, African, etc). It let me blend in when I wanted to.[/quote]
