[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, here's the thing. There are a lot of kids in the city. "All your child's peers" have not gone off to unicorn school, unless your IB school is standing empty. Those kids are your kid's peers too, unless what you are actually trying to say is that your child is better than the the kids who DO attend your IB school.

I don't really care for my IB school either. It's got okay scores, but it's 1% white and I think that having your child be the only white child in a class is just as bad as having your child be the only black kid in the class. But if I didn't have any other options, I would send her there and make it work.  Your kid will make friends in school, most likely. You don't have to stop being friends with the charter-goers.

[b]The more you post, the less sympathetic I become.[/b] Figure out a way to make it work and stop being such a snob.[/quote]

Agree. OP has options, but doesn't want to be inconvenienced. I'll reserve my sympathy [b]for people with no options who are really stuck[/b]. Not people who whine "But I don't WANT a longer commute! I don't WANT to leave the city! I like it here." Boo-friggin-hoo.[/quote]

What would you consider to be "no options" then?[/quote]
