[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] HoCo is not very diverse in terms of SES. It's much easier to deal with smaller and less diverse SES student body. I suppose if that's your goal (no SES diversity), then HoCo is probably your type of school district. For us, we left a school district that was mostly upper SES (different state) because 1. there are issues in high SES schools that are unique to such schools 2. even with all that wealth, the test scores weren't all that high. [/quote] Howard County is not Montgomery County, it's true. But it's not all one undifferentiated mass of upper-middle-class affluence, either. For example, Atholton HS is affluent: http://www.hcpss.org/f/schools/profiles/prof_hs_atholton.pdf (typically described as a "good school" on DCUM) Oakland Mills HS is not: http://www.hcpss.org/f/schools/profiles/prof_hs_oaklandmills.pdf[/quote]
