[quote=Anonymous]"Some of the schools in silver spring are >90% Farms, and I think that, as opposed to race, is the off-putting statistic. Whether high poverty is a valid reason to seek out another school is a question not everyone is going to answer the same. And it's a question some parent conveniently never face, because their schools have relatively balanced demographics." +1 it is not about race - it is about SES. They happen to go hand in hand often in this area but that still does not mean that parents avoiding high FARMS schools are doing so primarily due to race. So far at my SS school with a large percentage of FARM kids we have been happy but the social side of it is not to be ignored and is one we are watching closely. [/quote]
