[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I believe myself to have mainly criticized these schools for not enforcing their own rules when it comes to bullying and for chasing unproven educational trends. I have also criticized parents for never pushing back even when they disagree - rather than questioning a new math curriculum, they hire tutors, rather than complain about the weak sauce humanities curriculum, they whisper about it behind closed doors. I may have mentioned being taken aback by just how UES the parent community was at the girls schools, how invested they were in supper clubs, etc, but I can’t remember ever saying all that much about the kids other than some of their connections may have put them on the top of a very large pile and if you aren’t connected in that way, you can’t count on that extra boost for your kid.

I have met and hung out with a dozen parents at the girls school my daughter attends.  Not once did [b]"supper clubs"[/b] come up in conversation.

and again, the kids at the girls schools for the vast majority do really well.   you really are trying hard to convince people that they should stay away from these schools if they are just normal families.

sorry your Ivy League degree wasn't able to get you to the promise land of getting the College placement boost.

The only people I know of who went there were weird divorcees looking for rich men. A friend of a friend's mom went there and I saw pics - it was creepy and scary.[/quote]
