Boys and girls can be equally mean for the record.

We have friends at a variety of private schools in the DC, MD, VA area. The most common theme I hear from friends at all of these schools including ours is that the schools that have a very high percentage of parents that belong to either Chevy or Congo tend to also have a very distinct culture of mean kid/mean parent behavior. Yes, mean parents tend to have mean kids and for whatever reason those families and parents tend to cluster together in a very unhealthy way. [/quote]

Agree. The 8th grade class at SR has a large number of girls whose families belong to Congo or Chevy. It seems the girls have learned their elitist/exclusive behavior from their moms. [/quote]

Agree with all of this. Boys can also be very cruel and always get a pass.  It seems that in addition to the country club culture, you find especially mean kids in Lacrosse. The kids of both create a culture of exclusivity that usually extends from their parents behavior.

We have heard so many stories about SR but I think a lot of those parents/families all belong to CCC.  We also hear and have read on DCUM so many of these families came from NCS and it was the same atmosphere there too. Why do school admit these families knowing fully well about their exclusive behavior?  Is it just about the bottom line "Money"?
Also the 10th grade class at SR is chock full of mean girls. Several girls switched schools because the bullying was so bad. Heard the same about 9th and now 8th too, something toxic is going on over there in the SR school culture. [/quote][/quote]
