[quote=Anonymous]Substack article -

Child went to Spence. Was “bullied” but not details are provided on what or how, except for mention of a daily teacher led game where she was picked last for months. Spence investigated - came up with action plans, resilience classes (?), play dates with offenders… but didn’t take full responsibility for helping prevent problem.

They moved to Hamptons public school where they’re happy. Claims that the public’s have better curriculum, more arts, teachers are happier because they can be more creative. Even though ratios are higher they can divide attention equally

Admissions process is ridiculous bargaining. Private school will not make child more sociable, richer, connected, or academic. They will have anxiety or social inadequacies. A Brearley grad wanted to put her daughter in same school and therapist laughed because she was helping her deal with brearly trauma. Private school crisis counsel friend told her to keep her daughter in downtown, low stress school instead of Spence and she wished she had. She never toured a public school and had little faith in them. She was wrong[/quote]
