[quote=Anonymous]I am not a troll and have never voted R in any election and never would. I am sincerely looking for a school that isn’t conservative but also isn’t preoccupied with social justice at all levels. It is very hard to tell what’s going on from the outside especially with covid and politics being such a sensitive subject. My child is very young, sensitive and impressionable and I want his beliefs to evolve without constant “guidance”.

Social justice/DEI can be illuminating and constructive but when it’s the only “North Star” for a school, it can also be clumsy, inappropriate for early elementary and frankly hypocritical in the context of private ed. I have no real idea where Sheridan or gds, (or dcps for that matter!) fall. I don’t judge parents who would want either environment and maybe I’m naive for thinking a middle /neutral path exists but that would be my ideal. I can’t actually ask admissions people about this so I turn to this board. If my comments = Trumper in people’s minds, it seems unlikely I’ll find what I’m seeking.

Also, antisemites? Try admitting you’re Jewish on some campuses and not getting attacked immediately re: Israel. [/quote]
