[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the title I schools are less likely to hold on to kids in higher SES homes. I know Barcroft has lost kids who were unable to get into ATS or didn't want to go to Claremont. No one wants to send their kid to Kenmore if possible. That school is having serious problems both socially and academically.[/quote] Please. We have a good friend whose DC went to Taylor and CHOSE Kenmore. She's incredibly bright and is very happy there (and has no social/academic issues). Our DC, zoned for Williamsburg, attends Gunston. Similarly super happy there. At the risk of getting flamed, this discussion shows just how much racism there still is - even in liberal/progressive Arlington. The discussions center on white children/white scores, the "dangers" of FARMS kids, the "dangers" of life in (browner/blacker) S. Arlington... Said as a white parent in N. Arlington whose DC attends school south of Rte. 50[/quote]
