[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there an official DCUM definition of "diverse" or do we all bring our own personal idea of what makes a school diverse? (That's a rhetorical question, btw.)[/quote] I hope MCPS isn't using racial diversity, like everyone in this thread seems to assume. But if they are, they should break out 'Asian' into it's subcategories. Near East, South, South East, and Far East asians are nothing alike with different religions, cuisine, clothes, skin color, and societal norms. On that mark, Wootton is culturally diversity. But for MCPS, I think they are more focused on SES, with ethnicity as lazy proxy for it. Which is why rich Hispanic and AA still count as 'diversity'.[/quote]
