[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a stereotype that the bethesda public high schools are all rich segregated schools. 17% of the kids at BCC are considered “economically disadvantaged.” It’s 13% at WJ. Yes that’s less than McPS average (about 27%) but it’s still a significant percentage of kids coming from disadvantaged backgrounds. The one teen who has been identified was from a single parent household, mom a bus driver. These two schools are more diverse than people think. [/quote] Ok. But Einstein (46% low-income) and Blair (42% low-income), two much more diverse schools, just had a great football game with no fights or attacks. None that I can remember in recent years. [/quote] Completely true, but one thing to point out is the BCC/WJ assault (I'll say "assault" since that is what it is), was not at the game, or really related to football in any way. It was near the Bethesda metro. [/quote]
