[quote=Anonymous]My kids' ES is about 45% Hispanic, 35% White, 10% Black, rest Asian and other. Definitely a majority minority school but no one group is really dominant. The demographics in each classroom are pretty much the same as the overall demographics and my kids have always had friends from all the groups, although many of their best friends/play dates tend to be with kids from our neighborhood, who participate in the same activities they do like scouts and soccer. A higher percentage of these kids are white, but about a third are minorities. So anyway I feel like we and they fit in just fine. Parents can communicate via class email groups or use the school directory to look up each others phone number. My kids have learned a lot about other cultures and families and traditions in learning about their classmates and made some great friends.[/quote]
