[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stuart Hobson is a beautiful renovation but that has done nothing to change the fact that I can’t send my 14 year old into the close by neighborhood markets because they have had to make rules about no one under 18 allowed in without an adult rule - and have to enforce it equitably because of woke neighbors. I did not send my child to SH because of the rowdy students. I am guessing others have made the same choice.[/quote]

This. I could never send my UMC black children to SH. They would be destroyed.[/quote]

I've lived across the street from SH for almost 20 years.  I won't send my white children because the cops occasionally race up to arrest kids brawling on the playground and the sidewalk out front.  I thought the drama would end at some point, as the neighborhood gentrified steadily and intensely.  It hasn't.  [/quote]

Yes, and my black child could easily be swept up by the cops in a way that your white child would (very likely) not.  Not to mention the low expectations that my child would be subjected to, which, once again, would not be applied to your white child, putting aside legitimate concerns with the rigor of SH's course options/lack of differentiation. [/quote] Yes, I’m sure that’s true.  To me, life is too short to send my kids to schools where peers rumble, even if the cops would let them alone.[/quote]
