Our school is really diverse. There’s a unusually high amount of Russian people, Jewish people, (even more so Jewish Russian people!). White people are almost a minority(missouri). live in a fairly middle-class neighborhood, but bus goes into the St Louis city so it picks up a lot of lower-income kids. I think 1 or 2 in each class is sent to an Ivy League school a year, as far as I know. Last year’s top 10 went mostly to our state flagship, a bunch of universities in Cal, and the valedictorian to Darthmouth.

I don’t know much about the athletics, but we get a lot of kids each year going into the all-suburban/all-state band/choir/orchestra and whatnot. Not to mention, our school has won several awards for recycling and composting initiatives.
