[quote=Anonymous]We'd all like to believe that our schools accept only the brightest and most capable students. Makes us feel oh-so-special. But it's true of only one school that I know, and I know many of them very well. Most of DC private admit a range of average to super-bright kids. Yes, even that one you're thinking of. And this is GOOD news! Because when you admit students representing a narrow range of ability and ambition, it creates a really unhealthy atmosphere. Diversity isn't just the right thing to do -- it also makes for happier students, more relaxed parents, more joyful communities. The NAIS just put a study about this on their social media in case you want to look into it. [/quote]
