Isn’t that a lot of what this thread has been about? (Not that there have been answers, to be fair)

Nobody cares about bogus content on social media.

I think there have been emails to the community regarding the Instagram pages and a call for those who want to talk to feel free to do so. The wording I saw was very positive and encouraging of those who want to speak out to make the changes that need to be made.

And if that’s the response, i’d look for another school. This is probably a troll. Everyone who really goes to sta knows that the posts on IG are largely about actual, well-known occurrences. The administration acknowledges there are issues. So this is either a troll or a racist whose days at sta are hopefully numbered.

The school also had discussions with the students about this at their weekly assembly.

They are largely anecdotal stories that may or may not be true. Which stories have been verified as true? But if you aren't happy about the school you are attending, maybe you should look for a different school.

Stop fishing. If you had ANY connection to these schools, you would have knowledge of many of these events. You would have received emails about them. You are not in the loop and have nothing to do with these schools, clearly, so go away.

Is this really enough or even affective when it comes to decades of entrenched culture and behaviors?

DP. There is no culture of racism at these schools. Many posters have described the issues above and many families agree. The school has changed drastically since my relatives attended.

STA has a great plan but it’s irrelevant to than 99.% non STA parents posting here.

I've been connected to NCS for a long period of time.

I'm white.

Everyone knows me.

I've never been allowed into any building on the close without a pass. Never. Even when I've returned multiple times in one day.

Literally no DC private just lets you in. Nor should they! That said, there's way more too those ig accounts, and there are some very important issues that need addressed.

You say they may be true. Why would you want people who are unhappy about these incidents to leave? Are you happy about them? If you aren’t, are you going to leave? If you are...?
