[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a senior who is about to graduate after an excellent experience in SR upper school. While I was initially skeptical of the increased focus on DEI issues and thought they should just stick to academics, my daughter has really loved these activities and has never felt targeted for being white. Over the past year as we've spent a lot of time researching top colleges and eventually getting some great acceptances I've also seen that this culture of diversity work is much stronger in top schools and I think my daughter would have had a much harder time fitting in with college if she hadn't already been exposed to this at SR.

Bottom line, it's an excellent school that prepared my daughter to get into several great colleges. Every top school seems to have some angry haters on this board.[/quote]

Being unhappy with SR exposing our DD's to the tenets of critical race theory is not the same as being an angry hater. We love SR just as you do. I'm glad your DD had a good experience there, but she's leaving just as the CRT curriculum gears up. I agree DEI at SR hasn't been terrible before now, but those of us with younger children have to worry more about where SR is headed.

I'm sure there are SR parents who would love to see SR go far left and become more like Holton or GDS in how race and gender issues are treated, but I think there are many more who disagree with this and just want SR to get back to actually teaching our DD's instead of indoctrinating them. There needs to be an honest discussion between SR and parents about this in which everyone can speak freely and no one has to worry about being canceled or having some teachers hate their DD because of their non-progressive views (it happens).
