[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Publish the high school profile to parents.[b] Provide the past years' matriculation lists[/b] (even if it's anonymous if privacy is really the concern). Make Naviance accessible to families outside the CCO. These are pieces of information that a school could provide in order to help families develop reasonable expectations. Sidwell does not do any of them.[/quote]

I agree[/quote]

But frankly, this information is totally irrelevant to the majority of the high school students.  For example, s[b]o far this year XX Big3 school is sending 4 kids to Harvard.  Three of these 4 are URM, one is not but is a double legacy. [/b]
The fact that XX school is sending any number of kids to Harvard IS COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT TO MY KID who has none of those hooks.  [/quote]

I hate when people give examples like this - so skewed and pejorative. If this is the school I think it is, all the students admitted to Harvard are either double legacy or multiple-generation legacy but you assume what you do.[/quote]
