[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child is in high school, so a little outdated, but we definitely felt left out as our children were not at St. B's or the Catholic high schools. It's not that anyone was mean (it is a friendly neighborhood), it is just that the St. B's families definitely stuck together and there was a very large and active group. I did not feel that we had that group being from the public schools and I did not feel welcomed by the Catholic parents. I personally wish that I had moved to a neighborhood that was more cohesive. That said, my youngest is now in high school, so things might be different now. [/quote]

This is part of the reason we moved out of Woodmoor after five years there.[/quote]

We moved to Woodmoor about four years ago. We have a five-year-old headed to Montgomery Knolls in the fall. There's a good mix of public and private school kids in the neighborhood. While it's definitely true that the Catholic parents aren't particularly welcoming to non-Catholics, it also feels like the importance and significance of St. B's has significantly waned over the last several years. It's not the center of neighborhood activities like it sounds like it was decades ago, and more and more non-Catholics are moving into the neighborhood and choosing to enroll their kids in the local public schools.[/quote]
