[quote=Anonymous]I wish the posters who are worried about sending their white kid to a mostly black high school would read the Banneker alum's post about Banneker being full of black nerds. This is not the same as sending your kid to Ballou! When we attended the open house back when dd was applying to schools, the Banneker students gave tours. They were nice, respectful kids who talked about how much they had to work but it was worth it. A friend of mine substitute taught there and she said the kids were great. Banneker may not work for your kid, I get that. But what bothers me is educated white families not even investigating Banneker directly based on preconceived notions. Do your research like you would do for anything else and then decide. [/quote]
