[quote=Anonymous]Code words on DCUM: "High SES" = white "Low SES" = black or brown "Diverse" = an acceptable percentage of white kids at the school. Acceptable is subjective and depends on the poster. "OOB" = black or brown "Engaged Parents" = white. Translating this post: The OP asked about demographics, meaning "is there a critical mass of white kids such that I will feel comfortable sending my white kid there?" Another poster replied that there were about half white parents there ("50% inbound") and half black or brown parents ("50% OOB"). That poster noted that there were many white ("engaged") parents there. So, are there any further questions I can answer about why people think this post is about race?[/quote]
