[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, thank you for this analysis.

It rings true in our cause - our white, relatively high income student attended Hardy and did great there, and is now attending Wilson where DC is at the same (or higher) academic level than DCs white, relatively high income peers who attended Deal.

Yes, but how did you deal with the judgmental looks from neighbors and friends when you told them that your kid goes to Hardy?[/quote]i

I am not sure if you are joking.. Or not.... I am an IB Hardy parent and can tell you that when I tell 6th grade parents, who are often strangled by private tuitions (and sometimes unhappy about their school) about my DC's experience at Hardy in the current 6th grade, I do not see judgment,[b] I see the glimpse of doubt[/b] of the type "maybe I should have looked better into that school .."  Actually  I saw this also with Basis parents.... Don't know anyone who's fully satisfied with that school.

I am happy to hear this -- it means the tide is turning.[/quote]
