I'll push back on the "not woke" part. I'm pro-woke, for sure, so there's that. There was an incident at Xavier not long ago where a kid made a homophobic (and hateful imo) remark online. It got back to admin and he was summarily expelled. There was disbelief among the Breezy Point (etc) crowd who didn't think it was such a big deal. The head of school said something like, This was actually an easy call for us. if you don't agree, you're free to find another school and we can help you with that process. It was bold and some might say "woke". I was impressed.[/quote]

Great job by the head of school. That is very impressive.

Too my point about the types of families, there is more of the "Breezy Point" element at Xavier than at the other schools. Kudos to the head of school for trying to weed them out, but they will still be there.

Not saying that bad morals and attitudes are not present at the other schools because I'm sure they are. Rich people can be real morally bankrupt jerks too. But there is a bit more of the Breezy Point/Staten Island element at Xavier than others. Which is good preparation for the real world. But also different. Especially at an all boys school.[/quote]
