[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know this is speculation and generalizations are being thrown out there, but nonetheless, it seems to me the nicest of cultures won’t exist at the most elite schools or the all boys schools with highly competitive athletics. [/quote] I would disagree with this. Sports necessitates cooperation, teamwork, and discipline - all very useful in life and for good vibes. But when high schools are recruiting teenage sports stars and separating them from the general school population, that's no good for anyone. And all the major private schools in this area are guilty of that - from St. Albans to St. Johns to Sidwell Friends to DeMatha to Gonzaga and so on. So you will get an ugly culture there. Sports should be a good culture. But somehow we messed that up. [/quote]
