Meh. They've really gone down hill this century. And their commitment to DEI is absurd. If I wanted my kid to go to school with muggles, I'd send him to muggle school for free.

I hear they have a nice Maine Coon cat, though.

A school with a nice playground like Beauvoirs. Doesn’t need to be on several acres though. I want to be for schooling, not landscaping and grass maintenance. Teachers that love teaching and want the best for the kids in their class. Other kids who are nice and not complete jerks. No cliques. 2 recesses a day and Spanish offered at the elem level. I do like a uniform as long as it’s practical and comfortable. No homework for the Elem years. …. True diversity, income, race, religion, family types……. And it Needs to be less than a 15 min drive from my house and cost less than $15k.

“ pay for schooling” that should say

Small all boys boarding high school. Supportive of ADHD/Anxiety. Great STEM and Arts program. Study hall required, as well as a sport/exercise and club activity after school. Strong ties to the local community. Dorm dads build strong relationships with the students and the majority of faculty live on campus.

Trinity Pawling School in NY. My brother went there and it was an incredible experience And all that you describe.

Expeditionary learning school. Huge outdoor space with lots of outdoor time. Progressive education (not talking about politics, but educational philosophy) where students follow their passions and interests for learning. OUTDOOR TIME and movement for my active kid. No worksheets.

There are no muggles at Hogwarts. Are you referring to magical children of muggles, ie “mudbloods”?
