[quote=Anonymous]Didn’t say I was misled — said the curriculum changed focus while I was there. They are now an anti-racist school with a particular focus, and that is their choice. It is not the choice many in the parent community or the alum community wanted, but the consultants they hired to do hiring didn’t seem to care. At my other child’s school, they brag about never using consultants to make hires because it’s lazy. I am leaving because I have found the program watered down, especially in history, and that the work is mainly busy work. They no longer read Jane Eyre, that was a mistake on your part, the type of thing that dwelling on seems beside the point to me. They do not read very deeply in the American canon or American history, and the Book of Genesis is in three major religions. To understand the world we are in, it’s good to have under your belt before Shakespeare, Donne or Morrison, really. I don’t consider it Western any more than I think Jesus had blue eyes. [/quote]
