Yup. Also look for school that emphasizes participation and fun. Black boys are always more aggressively punished for “disruptive behavior” so look for schools where kids are more free to be rambunctious. [/quote]

+1 happend to my son who has never even had a note,  email, or negative call about him, but was labeled as aggressive by someone. The person was unable to give 1 supporting statement for this.

OP I commend you for trying to research the topic. Studies show that parents paying for tuition may have skewed answers toward accepting the school. Have you read the black at each school on instagram from a students point of view?

Could this be the social media equivalent of vandalism?  These are teenagers we are talking about.  Maybe. Could be mischievous white kids, maybe adults.  ANONYMOUS rabblerousers.  Fiction writers.  Do not believe everything you read on the internet.  There is a welcoming audience for this sort of noise. [/quote]
Matches what people have discussed privately in person for years and years. Matches formal complaints that some families have made to administrators. [/quote]
