Yes, from our tour to interactions elsewhere, this is consistent. AND equally beautiful on the outside as well. The moms in this thread from the other schools come across as jealous and insecure. I worry about what they are teaching their own daughters. |
It’s the opposite. I’m getting tired of having to dumb things down in this thread. It’s exhausting trying to communicate with the masses! |
Stilllll here huh? |
| NP. I was staying away from this thread, but I have to admit that my very smart and studious daughter who attends one of the other higher ranked girls schools knows quite a few girls who attend HC. Nice girls, but I kind of agree that there is a lot of focus on looks, makeup, and girly stuff in general among those girls. It could be that there are clicks that are not like that, but with the size of the school so small, those girls would probably be outcasts. That's one of the reasons my daughter who's not girly and doesn't wear makeup decided against HC and is attending a higher ranked school with more rigorous academics. Oh, and she's not homely...very cute and athletic. Just doesn't wear makeup or do TikTok videos. |
Okay, Petty Patty. |
So you “tried to stay away” and somehow in your efforts to only minimally participate in this conversation managed to insult the girls at Holy Child, while lauding your own daughter as “smart and studious” and going to a school with “more rigorous academics” at one of the “higher ranked girls schools.” Since your kid doesn’t attend HC, you actually have NO idea what the academics are like. And newsflash, there is no *official* ranking of private girls schools. You’ve only confirmed that your daughter doesn’t like/know how to put on makeup, doesn’t like social media and is easily intimidated by attractive, well put together teens from wealthy families. Not sure where, in 2023, she will fit in socially with that profile. |
LOL. She doesn’t need makeup because of her long dark eyelashes, dark eyes and tanned skin. She has used makeup for certain occasions. But not at school. She is not intimated by anyone lol. She has social media but just lurks. She is living a very health teen life as a strong athlete and top performer academically. She is much more mature than others her age. Oh and our net worth and income is such that people would consider us wealthy. We don’t flaunt it though. |
Not true. They are known to be the "prettiest" girls. Ask any DC areas HS guy. (However looks aren't important) |
Exactly. This is what my son’s friends say. They are at GP and Gonzaga. Not to mention the public school boys who drool over them. |
Sure, hon. Your daughter is beautiful because she has dark eyes and long lashes? So does Dora the Explorer. And I’m sure you’re wealthy - this is what wealthy women do - hang out in this thread and pick on high school girls just because they are pretty. You are sad. |
Wait, I never said they were pretty. I said they like to use makeup and do tik tok videos. They're high maintenance. That's not necessarily pretty. Anyone can do what they are doing and look amazing, including my daughter. To me (and my daughter), this is shallow behavior. |
Yes, but technically, they are the “prettiest” in the area. I think that’s why people are calling them snobby. |
Yeah, no, my daughter doesn't consider them snobby. Just not the type she would want to spend a lot of time with. |
| There’s a lot of snobby going on in this back and forth. Some nice girls like to wear makeup and act girly. Other nice girls are studious book worms who do not like like makeup or TikTok. Some nice girls are a combo of both. Find the school that fits your kid and quit bashing others. |

All I know is that happy, confident, and kind women rarely hang out on anonymous list serves saying that their children are the best and go to the best schools and that others are dumb, have no social capital, or are only pretty with make-up on.
As it has been said more than more on this chain- some people peak in 8th grade, some in 12th, and some at 35. All of these girls will be just fine. If you think the “Big 3” (which no one who was born and raised in this city, and has a lick of social prominence calls it) will set you kid up for life, than I have some bad news for you… |
