[quote=Anonymous]I know a PP chimed in with "Not East Silver Spring" but we've had kids there for years and have had a great experience. While it can be daunting to send your middle class white kid to a high FARMS and majority minority school, we've found that the mix of middle class social justice-oriented families and education-oriented immigrant families is a great mix. One thing we have loved about the school is the high performing Black and Latino kids, obviously being spurred by parents who came to the US to give their kids a good shot at success. There's one poster on DCUM who is really negative about the school, and maybe she had a bad experience, but that hasn't been our experience at all. We've found solid teachers, a strong principal, and a really friendly and high achieving group of kids. It's also a small school, which lends itself to the kind of "neighborhood school" environment that we were looking for. [/quote]
