[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] It's complicated for for upper income AAs. I have similar concerns for my DS. I worry about his peer group identification as a mixed race teen. Too many adults in this town have failed black boys resulting in very low academic achievement. Latino students are doing better but not by much.[/quote] Is it truly more complicated for upper income AAs than for upper income.highly educated others? We're Asian American and wouldn't send our kids to a majority black school either. Peer group identification certainly cuts across race lines in this century. Fortunately, our preschool age kids are young enough for us to hope that DC public middle school quality will have dramatically improved in the next 8 or 10 to the point that we can find the rigor we're looking for. Perhaps Basis will provide it sooner, maybe 2-3 years hence, after some families entering at 5th have opted out. [/quote]
