[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of DCUM posters here just trying to raise the property values of their homes so take advice with a grain of salt.

I’m extremely happy with our kids’ N Potomac school. [b]Very diverse in a good way,[/b] friendly, smart and well-behaved peers. Not something what I’ve noticed in some other areas of MCPS. W schools children can be overly competitive, cliquish and tribal, and some areas of Blair are rough.

How I found our school was making sure it was diverse (not just white/Asian) and has good test scores. I tend to agree with Niche rankings … Great Schools is terrible.[/quote]
What does the bolded me? Is there a "bad way" in terms of diversity? Like too many poor people?

In MCPS, N. Potomac area is not really considered diverse.  I live very close to that area (vast majority are white/Asian).

Rockville, Germantown, Gaithersburg are the most diverse.[/quote]

North Potomac is Gaithersburg where people wanted more land/new homes.[/quote]
Where in N. Potomac is it "Very diverse in a good way"?[/quote]
