[quote=Anonymous]Maybe GDS is more explicit about diversity issues compared to other schools? Age appropriately, of course. GDS seems to take the approach that issues of race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation need to be discussed frankly, openly, and with a complexity that is developmentally appropriate. Some parents are not comfortable with this and believe that while the exposure to diversity is important, they do not believe that the classroom and school the appropriate venues for talking about these things, if one has to talk about them at all. (There have been other threads about this under General Parenting.) BTW, I imagine Sidwell would have a similar approach, but I'm not so sure about religiously-oriented (esp. Catholic) schools.[/quote]
