[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi, all, I'm the poster who early in the thread said that despite being a "raging liberal" I wasn't going to cast aspersions on the Heights because "the beauty of this country" is different strokes for different folks. Coming back to the thread 6 or 7 pages later, I have to re-think my position. What's up with all the hate and nastiness and the frothing at the mouth by so many posters who purport to be Heights' parents? It's not a good look, and it's not doing the reputation of your school any favors. [/quote] I’m also a liberal (conservatives H-not alt right, did not vote for Trump). I pointed out that while my kids did have a great experience you will run into some parents like the one on here who thinks there are “thought police” and some kids will parrot their words. So it is something to take into account. There is both an alum and a student posting. Their posts seem more on point. But the loonie is also on point because that is what you will hear from parents. [b]Also the alum I assume’s 1st language is Spanish which is common at the Heights. Took Spanish 5 which is high level Literature class where all texts are read in Spanish and all papers written in Spanish.[/b][/quote] Um, maybe half my class (the rest of whom took a different language) took Spanish 5 our senior year and took the AP. None of us, not a one, were originally Spanish speaking. You seriously think you have to be born speaking Spanish to take Spanish 5? I guess at the Heights maybe.[/quote]
