[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As the original poster about parents actually seeking a majority-white environment, I agree with your post….I will grant that some parents (a) use FARMS as a proxy for race or (b) are choosing to be in a non-FARMS school district.

I also agree that neither is good reason for choosing a school and could be considered reprehensible.  Particularly considering the school district is the same and, therefore, the range of classes is identical.  You can get Math 7 in any school.  Same with IM.  That's the beauty (and some would say the curse) of a large school district such as MCPS.

One complaint I've heard from parents who attend very high farms schools is that there's little to no involvement in the PTA and social barriers exist for kids coming from english speaking households.  You may think that the curriculum is delivered the same everywhere, but I imagine there are many parents out there - with plenty of experience under their belts - who would strongly disagree.
