[quote=Anonymous]Thanks for this discussion, ladies. I am white, and I've both learned a lot and been very saddened. I wish you and your kids the best. FWIW, my DS (white) is at an area private and his small class, at least, is minority white. I know it gets less diverse as the classes get larger in the upper grades. I was interested to see that in this racial mix my son is in no way color blind, but he seems to have no judgement attached to skin color, the way I know I did when I was his age and in an almost all white school. When he makes drawings of himself or chooses an avatar on the computer he chooses skin tones like hairstyles. This is all just to say that I think there are some relatively diverse private schools, though I know the mix in my son's class is a bit of an anomaly. [/quote]
