[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay, Potomac boosters, while you jumped on the NMSF and other academic awards part, you ignored the charge that [i]"Potomac is in a suburban neighborhood...., it is nothing particularly special. It has a mostly white and preppy student body and is frankly, rather bland. It is more akin to a high performing, wealthy suburban public school than a modern, elite NWDC private school."[/i] So, anything to say to this?[/quote] All the elite schools push diversity, including Potomac. Its diversity numbers are similar to the NWDC schools. As to whether the children are "bland," I have no idea how you would even know this, I suspect they are obsessed with the same kinds of pre-teen and teenager thoughts as any other children who live in an upscale area and too busy texting their friends to give it much thought.[/quote]
