What’s the latest on Maret?

Anonymous
I was really horrified at first by the choice but I’ve heard that he’s been meeting with all faculty and staff one by one, which is frankly more than the last HoS ever did. All she did was talk down to parents and micromanage the teachers.

What is your source for this information?

My neighbor's kid is joining next year and Maret was 1 of 2 schools their kid got into- the rest were rejected. That is what I believe is happening.


My neighbor's kid got into every top school including Sidwell and a Cathedral school (don't want to reveal gender) except for one and chose Maret.

The 8th graders going to Maret next year from my kid's school are not the sharpest tools in the toolkit.

Did they ever get their own athletic field or are they still using the shady sweetheart deal to use the DC public field?

Yes they let anyone in now! I heard they admitted 9% of those who applied. I was horrified. It should be much much lower!

Still bitter about that rejection, we see. Your kid will be fine wherever, PP.

I guess they still don’t have a field. Enjoy being “beloved” by the DC community for your fair use of resources Maret.

Not bitter, just better! Indeed, after being accepted to Maret, we are delighted with our decision to enroll in a different school. My comment about who got "in" is really geared toward highlighting the lack of academic rigor, class offerings, college acceptances for nonathletes and hooks that we found at Maret as a whole compared to our current school. Upon evaluating other schools' curricula, it became apparent that Maret's program was lacking. While we appreciate their inclusive approach towards a broader range of students it did not align with our specific requirements.

You’ve been slipping a bit, Maret Troll. I didn’t really love your recent stuff about the athletic fields. But this? This is *chef’s kiss* really good stuff. Reminds me of the good old days.

NP. There is literally only one athlete (maybe 2) of the top grads from last year that went to “top schools”, what are you talking about?

Maret specialized in back room deals, cliques, and turning upper middle class kids into neo-marxists who still like brand shopping.
