[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find the diversity to be lip service. There is a difference between racial and ethnic diversity and economic diversity. Kids with low social and economic backgrounds tend to engage in antisocial behaviors. They are separated from the school community despite the principal and social worker and PTA doing everything to support and include. I try to develop real friendships with other parents but I rarely see them at school events and they don't tend to play rec sports or do scouts or band. The only place my kids interact with kids from different socio economic background is the community rec center and playground. The parents allow their kids to roam our neighborhood unsupervised, have phones, be out past dark. I am not comfortable with those things. I realize I have the resources and economic mobility but I don't see these families enrolling in [b]rec or Baroody which are free[/b]. [/quote] Rec and Baroody aren't free at our school!![/quote] They provide need based scholarships for kids with financial aid [/quote]
