[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks so much for these responses. I want to clarify that I’m asking from the point of view of the students. DC observed that it seemed like there was less school spirit. But shadow days can be random and I’m trying to understand if that’s an accurate perception or not. [/quote] Schools that are more diverse often have a more elusive sense of school spirit. But there may be opportunities deeper friendships and relationships with teachers, and it may mean that more of the community’s energy goes into things beyond the rah-rah sports stuff. I don’t know a ton about WIS but in my kid’s case, they are moving to a school that has less school spirit on the surface, but way more energy poured into group projects, community meetings, etc. I would encourage your DC to look deeper (using age-appropriate language) and think about the pros.
