[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]On the flip side, if you would like to be a part of a thriving "community" with super cool black and white families (neither school has much of a spanish population) that are bound together by mutual respect and commitment to their children as well as the school itself, then Hearst and Eaton are arguably your best options.[/quote] OR, if you Mt Pleasant families want to be part of a thriving community of super cool families that reflects the[i] actual neighborhood you live in[/i], you could go to Bancroft! I do not get why people even choose to live in Mt. P when they have zero interest in our local school. [/quote] As Jeff has tried to say many, many times on this thread,[b] there are many factors that go into a family's calculation about the school they choose.[/b] Hell, there are factors that go into the decision making around what brand of toilet paper I buy for my family. [b]In any case, it's not for you to understand.[/b] You are better served spending your time focusing on your own family. Your sentiment could also be applied to why a family would choose to send their child to a private or independent school (or even boarding school) that isn't in their own neighborhood. You're being purposely obtuse in a lame attempt to defend your exclusionary attitude. [/quote] Unless you choose your IB school because you like the neighborhood school concept. In which case, you are a racist elitist. [/quote] Can you please show me where anyone said anything of the sort? There has been a lot of criticism tossed around in this thread, but I am quite sure that nobody has been criticized for choosing their neighborhood school, let alone called a racist elitist. Please refrain from posting made-up, inflammatory remarks. [/quote]
