It starts in 7th grade there and a lot of it is mom-directed. The over the top b’nai mitzvah celebrations help foster a culture of exclusion since some students are not only not invited, but then are the few who don’t have the custom hoodie favor to wear to school.

I have noticed this issue and tried to keep it low profile with our kids. Mostly failed in that effort. Some self reflection is needed by all of us.

It's very hard for 7th graders to understand how some other kids may be feeling due to being excluded.

It is grotesque to send kids to school with clothing that marks who is in and who is out as a way of honoring a religious event. Kids do plenty of dividing as it is. The parents don’t need to facilitate it.

Amen. Just because it's a 1000 student population doesn't mean that kids are oblivious to other kids wearing clothes or other markings of an "in" crowd to which they are not welcomed. Parents please pay attention.

Mom's planning for over the top b’nai mitzvah celebrations results in a culture of exclusion. Same group is tone deaf and some have even posted in this thread too. Kids are learning from parents here. Unless you belong in that kind of group, just avoid Tilden. Parents encourage bullying and exclusion.

No one should have parties unless they invite everyone.

And everyone should get a trophy, because heaven forbid someone get hurt by feeling left out.

Here you , another example of tone deaf parents in Tilden.

You can invite 5 or 50, no one cares.

Problem is advertising your invitation list. It's disgusting to broadcast who was excluded.

No one can save Tilden with community like this.

Why the sweatshirts? Because these parents are provincial, tacky losers who are terrified that their little Sarah's bat mitzvah might be seen by their fake friends and neighbors as less lavish than that of Becky next door. Their 'positive' is keeping up with the Rosenbergs.

Nothing mysterious about that.

I’m surprised to read these complaints about Tilden. My child from a different MS participated at XC meets and soccer games at Tilden, and I was impressed with how many kids came to watch the meet and especially games and cheer their friends on. Seemed like a nice group involved in both playing and watching both sports.

Getting more than a whiff of antisemitism here.

Wow, pulling that card to avoid getting called out for exclusionary behaviors just because community is Jewish?

No one bats an eye if some one writes keeping up with Jones.

Some introspection is needed and I am saying that as part of community.

The Joneses haven't been persecuted for 5,000 years. But you do you.

The Welsh actually have been persecuted and colonized for that period.

So typical.

Shaming kids on public social media - not a big deal

Wearing a sweatshirt from someone's Bat Mitzvah - travesty and everything wrong with Tilden

This about sums up how a$$ backwards this school is.
