[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] Sure. There's one mother who seems very competitive to me about money. She's always talking about which expensive restaurant she went to over the weekend, sometimes in NYC, or money that she's spending on her house. And it's not just that she's sharing this informatiom, but also the way in which she says it. She used to show up to soccer practice all decked out. I try not to engage her.[/quote] What is wrong with talking about what restaurant you went too? Seriously..I routinely say if I went out..sometimes it happens to be an expensive restaurant and fyi I went to expensive restaurants when I wasn't even making a lot of money. You have no idea what she ordered? I used to or just a main dinner and no alcohol..I have spend more partying with my friends at chilis!! What is wrong with showing up at soccer practice decked out? I don't get that. I wish I was that together..I am not, I am just holding on but I don't get mad or jealous if someone looks cute. I am hoping I look cute again...need to lose 15 but that is another story. FYI I don't have kids at this school but was just lolling around today..beautiful weather..I need to get out!! Anyway..I heard WES is a great school..let's leave them alone and focus on hating Sidwell!! lol and I am not serious about that either[/quote]
