[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Both of my AA sons are at SFS lower school and love it. We have been there 4 years and so far no problems. This year the school has stepped up in terms of addressing race and inequality. To be honest, I have no nonsense children who have a strong sense of who they are. If you have a confident child, I am sure they will thrive at any school. [/quote]

Are you Black?[/quote]

All skinfolk aren’t kinfolk. [/quote]

True.  To me, it sounded like it was coming from a non-black parent.[/quote]

I wrote the original post and I am black and my husband is black. WTF is wrong you? Cause we aren't screaming claims of being mistreated my black card is being questioned. GTFOH, I teach my kids to stand up for themselves and confront bullshit like what you and your sidekick here has peddled. But oh yeah, we not kinfolk. [/quote]

One of the worst things you can do is come back and cuss out the same group of people from whom you’ve asked for help. I know this is emotional for you, but you need to calm down. Your goal is to gather information, not shut this down. Ignore the trolls- 1st rule of DCUM. It would also help if you did some personal research on independent schools in the area. There is a lot of info out there. Know the acronyms and read about the different heads of the schools (HOS). It will help you narrow things down considerably. 
SSFS has one of the best HOSs in the area. They’re far out, but may be a great choice. Good luck with your search.[/quote]

This is NOT the person who started the thread you are replying to, it is the person whose kids are at SFS and people accused them of not being Black.  Reason to be ticked in my opinion.

Can you all just STOP and get back to helping that family that posted find a good place to look at for their kids.[/quote]

+1 Definite reason to be ticked. [/quote]
