[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Housing is still largely segregated in this city and so even many of the public schools -- even the one our child attended -- may be segregated socioeconomically or otherwise. If you are looking for recommendations for charter or DCPS schools with diversity along both economic and racial lines, there are some and I am certain people can help you identify them. Garrison Elementary and Washington Latin immediately come to mind. Some Catholic schools may also fit the bill. Given the cost to attend private school it simply will be unattainable for many and therefore exclusionary. Good luck in your search! [/quote] Yes but then segregation is along different lines - like high IQ or people who feel a classical Latin based education is better. At work they talk about diversity - and I always thought it was hypocritical that we only hired people with MS+. Real diversity would include dropouts in this case.[/quote]
