I am not sure there are any expensive lilly white 99.999% white neighborhoods, maybe you are thinking about southern Virginia where there is less diversity? Every neighborhood in the DC area with a high great school rating tend to be at least 20-40% minority. Thanks for the uneducated stereotype.[/quote]

In NoVa the idea is to live in a place that is 70% white, 30% asian, and 100% high SES, and to point to the asian percentage to show you are not a bigot, while hating and fearing blacks, most hispanics, and poor people of any color.  [/quote]

Don't be stupid, even the whitest school langley and madison still have 10-15% Hispanic or black. [b]No school is 30% Asian[/b].[/quote]

WRONG!

Wootton HS - 34.7% Asian

I assume what the prior poster meant was that, if there were any schools close to 70% white, they wouldn't be 30% Asian.

In FCPS, there are 19 elementaries, three middle schools and two high schools (Centreville and TJ) that are over 30% Asian, but none is close to 70% white.  One of the 24 has slightly more than 60% white students (Colvin Run).  So this notion that GS top-ranked schools are close to 70% white/30% Asian is not grounded in reality.
