[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It may not be popular or PC or what ever the hell is in vouge right now, but I would never knowingly place my child in a low performing school for the sake of social diversity.  I know a family that has done this and it, shall we say, is not going well.  [/quote]

my brother's child goes to a school where 60% of parents work at google. yes, the school is very "high performing". is that the kind of school that you would send your kids to?[/quote]

Guaranteed it is incredibly ethnically diverse. [/quote]
ummm no... All Asian and White.  Not very diverse.  My kids used to go to school out that way.  It wasn't diverse at all.  The only diversity was that there were a handful of "poor" Hispanics.  Rest were wealthy white and Asian.

We chose an 8 over a 10 because of the diversity. The 10 school had no diversity, either in SES or race.   If the HS is a <5 , then probably not.   BTW, when a school is over 50% of any race, that's not diverse.[/quote]
