[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Do you know specifically why these kids are transferring from Yorktown to W-L?[/quote] In my child's case, it is because they didn't like the social environment at YT. [b]Too much pressure to be an "attractive, rich white kid". Boys felt like they have to be the sports superstar who wears vineyard vines and girls have to wear makeup and cute uggs. [/b]Not so much based on the academics. But this has happened to multiple kids I know. I know of 4 kids that transferred in the past year, just out of our small group of friends.[/quote] This. The place is kind of cold. Don't want my kid starting becoming an adult life like this. The other two schools have better environments. [/quote] Yep. My co worker's daughter got caught up in all that crap. They pulled her out.[/quote] I've heard the mean girl and Bro culture is very strong there.[/quote]
