[quote=Anonymous]This thread reminds me of my husband's family. They are one of those families who spends so much time and energy invested in the idea that they are a super functional, happy family that they can't admit even their minor dysfunctions and, therefore, they get worse over time. In other words, their greatest dysfunction is the myth that they have no dysfunctions. SWS kind of seems like that kind of place. A generally good school community that conceives of itself as so functional that (at least a part of the community) has trouble admitting to itself that it has some dysfunction. Not the worst flaw in a school by a long shot, but being self-critical and open to the idea that changes can make things even better is always a good idea. Don't dwell on the criticisms, PPs, but think about whether or not you can do something differently to make others feel more welcome at the school. My kid probably has no shot at getting into SWS next year. I am hoping that cliquishness is the worst dysfunction I find at whatever school she does get into. [/quote]
