[quote=Anonymous]I don't think GDS is attractive to anyone who thinks of schools the way they think of country clubs. When I was in high school in the 1980s, there were still lots of parents/families that didn't want to send their children to school with Jews (let alone blacks, Asians, or Latinos). So "couldn't get in elsewhere" often was a matter of ethnicity. When we were house shopping a couple years ago in Cleveland Park, the realtor, who had an all-boys Catholic school sticker on her car, couldn't keep herself from repeatedly calling it "Jewish Day." Bigotry just isn't limited to Appalachia. [/quote]
