[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can we stay focused on MS and HS? Elementary is not a factor in this discussion and light years away 9 year olds also do not factor in 
And this discussion is not about the UMC black families that can afford private and I do believe that all families worry about their kids and want what is best
We are talking about what options there are for MC and UMC white families that live in DC and want more diversity in their schools and what comfort level they have to be the only white kid in the school. 
Most schools are predominantly black and many of those kids live out of bounds over the river and in MD which is a whole other story 
We live under the mason Dixon line and it makes sense demographically but we still need to acknowledge that many of us who moved here to be in DC and experience this great city are met with a terrible school system overall and those of us that can not afford private or get a lottery spot are lost in what to do.
I don’t think the Washington natives are raciest and I think for the most part DC implants are not racists but there is an obvious cultural difference. Many of my DC (dear child) friends are black but I don’t know where they  live and have never met their parents because they are not involved at school and it leave loss in their social life. great kids! just limited

Can we please stay focused on the UMC white people! I mean, jeez, after hundreds of years of it being all about everyone else when will white people with means finally get the attention they so desire?

This is a legit issue in DC 
Where do you live? Where does your kid go to school?[/quote]
