[quote=Anonymous][quote]It's hilarious. Yorktown booster ( on a Wakefield thread- of course) wants you to simultaneously know that your black child will do marginally better at Yorktown because it is oh so liberal AND know that Wakefield is deficient because it is poor, immigrant, and brown. So awesome.[/quote] That was my point! It seems like from a population standpoint, relying on test scores isn't going to be enough to make a good choice for my kids. I was sort of shocked when I realized this. Logistically private school didn't make sense with my schedule (I work in an unpredictable area of medicine), so I ended up in a South Arlington home zoned for Wakefield. We took the money we saved from buying up north and are putting it toward enrichment/college savings. It seemed like the most level headed approach. I am not moving until the kids are grown so we feel pretty good about putting down roots here.[/quote]
