[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Genuinely Curious… what do moms do to help their girls starting in 9th grade?[/quote]

Since it’s a genuine question…I’ll offer that they sign them up for the “right” summer camps. Not sure what the old-school SEC ones are, but I’m from Texas and those are Camp Longhorn, Camp Mystic for girls, and Kanukuk in Missouri. (Though tbh you don’t really wait until 9th grade for that. You go from like 3rda12th grade so that you know all the girls ahead and behind you when you get to campus!)
You sign up for and participate in NCL (National Charity League), you belong to Junior League (as a sustaining member at this point because you were likely in JL in your 20s before your kids were born and maybe when they were toddlers) but you still attend the teas and galas/fundraisers. You support your own sorority fundraisers and teas and Christmas markets, etc and you bring your DD so she can meet other members DD’s.
You make sure she is involved in philanthropy, has good scholarship, and maintains clean social media. Nothing can tank a potential new members chances like a rotten reputation or a social media post that won’t go away.

That’s what they do to help their daughters starting in 9th grade.

And at old school SEC schools as well as flagship Texas schools, recommendations are absolutely still required.

Wow, so this isn’t just about rush, but it’s a whole lifestyle that goes generation to generation. 
What is NCL and JL?  Never heard of them. I know you said a bit about them but what do these organizations do and who joins? Are they mostly social?  Do you mean that you join and take your DD or DD joins?
What kind of philanthropy are y’all doing?  Like community service directly with people in need- soup kitchens, etc? Or is it more galas and donations?  
Do these DDs ever end up in professional careers such as doctors, engineers, lawyers, scientists?

Not judging, just truly fascinated and curious to learn about this foreign lifestyle. [/quote]

Read or watch "The Help" for a fictionalized 1960s version of Junior League.[/quote]
