[quote=Anonymous]Lots of misinformation here
New co-heads of school are Dr Ara Brown and Susanna Stossel (formerly of Beauvoir) Both are very well-loved and absolutely terrific people. I am mystified why people are gossiping about this school, especially when you have no kids there, no investments there, and no connection there. So odd![/quote] I HAD a child there, invested time and money, and was connected to many families! Thank goodness we are OUT and so ODD that your assumptions are dead wrong! No gossip here, just the truth from personal experience. Whittle oversells and underdelivers. |

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's pretty apparent that the priorities are askew when you go to the website, click on the button for school leadership and the heads of school are 2/3 way down the page, after the company execs, the head of HR and the head of marketing.

Of the people listed on the top half of the page you linked to, the head of IT, head of development, head of global design, vice chairman/president, head of school DC are all GONE! [b]And rumor has it that even Whittle himself has been sidelined.[/b] None of these updates made to the website probably because the head of IT left? 🤣 Which begs the question - who exactly is running the show and to whom are we entrusting our children!![/quote] Avenues in NYC is still around but I believe Chris Whittle was given the boot from there pretty quickly. Wonder if the same thing is happening here to try to save the school? [/quote] Not only did they give him the boot, but they later sued him for 5 million that he took. At least from reporting last fall, Avenue asked the court to force the sale of hos Hamptons mansion to pay off his debt. A hot mess![/quote] And so is whittle! |
