[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have been at Brent for 5 years, and I have to be honest, I used to complain about relative lack of diversity, but recently it feels like there are more international families. Quite a number are only there for a year or two, in between overseas appointments. A lot more Asians too. It's not representative of DC's general population, but it's certainly diverse. I think Brent has been great for my kids socially, but it's mediocre academically. [/quote] All DCPS elementary schools are mediocre or weak academically. That's to be expected, OP. Our friends in Upper NW with kids at Key and Mann, the most high SES/whitest of all the DCPS schools, complain that the these programs are mediocre academically. Worth remembering that DCPS is one of the lowest-performing urban school systems nationally, and that there are no formal elementary gifted programs in the system. [/quote]
