[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would've been OK with Walls pre Covid, under the sharp, dynamic previous head, when an entrance exam was used to screen students and applicants had to submit a standardized test score (PARCC, PSAT, SAT). Post Covid, Walls obviously isn't the school it used to be. Neighbors and friends with sophomore, juniors and seniors describe serious problems like no subs, weak ad hoc humanities instruction (whatever individual teachers want it to be) and teachers quitting mid-year and not being replaced until the fall. We rejected our Walls offer for a private this spring. [/quote] No one has quit mid year at Walls since maybe 2017. And that person had medical reasons to leave. Walls has way more subs than most schools. Some other poster wrote how there was no U.S. history teacher for weeks- absolutely not true. Walls is not perfect but you spreading these lies says more about you than the teachers at that school.[/quote]
