[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm intimated by JKLM schools because though we are a hard working, professional family, our income and lifestyle doesn't really jive with the families at these mostly high SES in-bounds schools. I find it nervewracking and unsettling. Also I've become accustomed to the incredibly diverse environment of our current school. For example, we played several sports teams from a few JKLM's and 90% of the kids were white. While that's not their fault, it doesn't represent my reality and I consciously reject it. Granted this is a team and not the school itself, but it's different than my current school's teams. [/quote] Complete lack of diversity (racial and socioeconomic) at our JKLM is my biggest problem and it's an unfixable problem short of citywide lottery.[/quote]
