[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every white kid I know is in "gifted" in the publics. OP -- don't you know that is how de facto segregation happens in the "diverse" public schools.[/quote] You hit the nail on the head. I love these parents who tout the fact that their kids go to diverse public high schools and meanwhile their kids are in the AAP/IB bubble and never mingle with the "others". Let's just call a spade a spade. These same parents (the ones I know) roll their eyes that we chose private because they feel private schools are not diverse enough. [/quote] As AA parents of a bright kid we chose a Big 3 in part because it is far more diverse than the MCPS magnet he attended for middle school. He had only one other black boy in his program, and his schedule was such that he had few clases with the other non magnet kids. He feels like he has a much more of a peer support at his Big 3.[/quote]
