| Do you like the school? Where else did you look? What is it like socially? |

| How would you describe the students? Are they from all walks of life (jocks, artsy, etc) or do they skew a certain way? |

| Can you share how easy it is to make friends, connect with others? Also, do you feel connected to the faculty? |

It depends on the grade but there are a lot of kids who like art. Burke’s not really a stoner school anymore. There are some athletes but I wouldn’t really call them jocks. A lot of gay kids. |

OP here, Burke’s pretty good. I looked a little at Field and public schools but my older brother went there so I decided to go there. |

OP here, in middle school most people make friends unless they’re really annoying. In high school there’s maybe one kid without friends. The faculty is very friendly. |

| Are the kids mostly “quirky” like DCUM says? Or would a mainstream kid fit in? |

OP here, a mainstream kid could definitely find friends but a significant amount of kids are “quirky”. |

| What kind of assignments and books did you complete in English? |

OP here, depends on the grade but 1984 is a big event for us. There are assigned roles and rules students have to follow to give the feel of the book. |

OP, what is your motivation for this post? Do you hope to recruit a certain type of student? Are you trying to break down a stereotype?
