[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People can comment about ATS all they want. The problem is people who do not send their kids to ATS yet claim to understand the motivations of why parents send their kids to ATS (apparently it’s because ATS has a waitlist and they love the exclusivity). Then you have the parents who claim to know what goes on in ATS classrooms such as the PP who claims that ATS does well because it teaches to the test. Look at all the threads out there. ATS parents are on the defensive trying to explain why they send their kids there and why they like the school. If they say why they like the school they are attacked by others who either claim they are lying or claim that by saying they like ATS they are somehow dissing their neighborhood school. ATS parents apparently are all evil elitists who hate their neighborhood schools and want to send their kids to ATS because they enjoy the exclusivity and want a private school experience and not pay for it. This entire debate is tiresome and circular. One has to wonder why all these parents have so much anger towards a school their kids don’t go to and profess so much knowledge over a school they don’t go to. [/quote]

Also are you daft? Obviously a parent who pulled their kid out of ATS has experience with the school. You know who doesn’t? The parent who’s kid didn’t get into ATS and is now so bitter about it that all she does is talk about how ATS parents, ATS kids and the school itself sucks on DCUM.
