[quote=Anonymous]I can't imagine why having lawyer and lobbyist parents would turn an applicant family off from a school. This is the norm for DC independent schools (financiers are less common here than in NYC), and WES parents tend to be less uptight than those at comparable schools. SAHM volunteers are also the norm in most schools, and contribute a lot to school life. I work, and have never been made to feel that I wasn't doing my share by the SAH moms. If you're worried about finding a nurturing environment for your young child, then consider WES very seriously. What extraordinary faculty in the transition to 1st grade years. They will see and appreciate what's unique about your child, and will cultivate those traits and talents without putting a lot of pressure on him/her. And the children are so very kind. DC loves going to school each day, finds joy in learning, and takes real pride in his school. [/quote]
