[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP, our family hasn't found the school parents to be cliquish at all.

We've never invited another family over and been declined.  We've never asked for a playdate and been declined.  We've never found it difficult to strike up a conversation with people we don't know at school parties.  In our children's grades, there is exactly one family that I find annoyingly shallow and entitled.  They aren't popular at the school; they are the exception; and, their child is sweet and incredibly smart.

[b]I don't know what kind of chip that one poster is carrying around.  It's really weird to read those kind of comments about such a low-key place.  It just doesn't ring true.  [/quote][/b]

I don't know how many posters have been posting but it is definitely not "one poster" with a chip, because we had a negative experience and I'm certainly not posting and posting here.  Many other posters are echoing my thoughts.  I read and think "I could have written this!"  I think at the beginning of the thread (which is old, BTW, someone must have resurrected it) someone (not me) said "ask around, D.C. and Maryland are full of unhappy parents who left" or something to that effect.  It's true.  Go read some of the other WES threads in the archives.  Same problems keep getting mentioned which are never cleaned up by the management (in fact, someone posted that the current head is going to get the boot if applications aren't up this year - it's in the archives).  I also have noticed a pattern when WES is critcized.  You see it here where someone decides to type out the school's mission? Uh, why?  It was just pablum.  That's when I think it is the WES PR/marketing people sock puppeting.[/quote]
