[quote=Anonymous][quote]Hi OP - I'm the PP who has a son currently at PBES but not in CES. FWIW - there are many children of color who come from middle-upper class families (parents are teachers, NGO staff, doctors, attorneys, other feds, etc) and those kids are doing just as well, if not better than lots of white kids. I don't know your SES but I think family income level is much more a factor than race alone.[/quote] Except the data the OP found doesn't support your anecdote that those kids are doing just fine. How exactly would you know the individual scores of all the black kids in your school anyway? Do you ask for scores and grades at school events and keep a notebook? Too many people dismiss bad scores as just those pesky poor kids. Lots of UMC and MC kids are failing in MCPS too. From the data Piney Branch is particularly bad in this respect especially for black kids. [/quote]
