It would be helpful if you would state the school you are commenting on, the grades your child attended the school, and even better if you have older children who have attended multiple schools in the cluster.

Option 1: Ritchie Park/JW/RM
Option 2: Beverly Farms/Hoover/Churchill

When my DC was in middle and high school, i was told there were tables for the white kids, tables for asian kids, tables for black kids, and table for hispanic kids. Of course there were a few tables for the outliners who had friends with different culcure background.
The best thing about diversity in school is the international night.

I wish you could see my kids' groups of friends. Not sure which schools you have visited but my visits look like a UN meeting.

Yes! I always say the exact same thing! (RM cluster, FWIW)
