[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our 2 children goes to WES and love everything about the place. I have visited many of the areas other private schools and WES is by far the LEAST cliquish school that I have seen.[/quote] From my experience at WES, the parents all say that everyone is so "down to earth" but [b]the reality is that they're very competitive and cliquish[/b]. I think they try to create this laid back perception of themselves, but it's not true.[/quote] PP, would you please provide one or two specific examples of this? Type of event/activity/sport, students' grades, etc.[/quote] Another example was the Back to School Night for kindergarten. One mom stood and expressed that her child must be able to read well before the end of kindergarten, and asked the two teachers how they intend to ensure that it happens. I really hate that sort of atmosphere. [/quote] Ah, the mother focused on early achievement who wants her child to read at age 6. The only way that having one of those sets WES apart is that the mom in question wasn't talking about her child in nursery school. [/quote]
