[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would not recommend it if you are a minority family or if you care about diversity. The culture is really not very open to different people. There are minorities but their diversity is not valued. It is not a welcoming place for people who don’t fit the traditional Madison vibe, not just racially but also in terms of diverse interests. Your kids will be on the outskirts of life, to be honest. No issues academically but for me, mental health is very important. [/quote] Sorry you’ve experienced that- we are a minority family and our kids haven’t felt excluded. It’s a small school with opportunities for everyone: excellent sports and marching band, and several STEM-related clubs . . . However I do agree that the skills-based grading is a major issue.
