[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't care about racial diversity but did choose to live in an area zoned for a HS with more economic diversity vs. one that has virtually no FARMs kids and skews to very high income. [b] I went to that kind of nearly-all upper income HS and the culture was toxic -- all about appearances, materialism, bullying those who didn't fit the right look, lots of drug use, entitled kids and parents. [/b] I managed to isolate myself somewhat from all of it by being in a small honors program within the HS but [b]it definitely gives a skewed perception of the real world.[/b]

My kids have been at schools for ES, MS and HS with 30-40% FARMs rates and I've been happy with the quality of the education at all the schools and the quality of the school culture.  The schools happen to be racially diverse too but that wasn't the goal.[/quote]

Yep.  It's unclear to me why any parent would want this kind of environment for their kids.  [/quote]
