[quote=Anonymous]The school is not a dumpster fire. It is, however, having an identity crisis. It has tried so hard to be apolitical when that's just not so easy any more; conservative families are pushing for one thing while progressive families want another. Everyone wants more rigor but they are confusing more homework and testing with having high standards. They don't seem to know what colleges look for, because infinite AP exams isn't it. The school desperately needs to shake things up, especially at the middle and upper school. They need fresh ideas, and they need leadership. The teaching strategies are dated, there is no administrative oversight of the what and why of teaching. And yes, the school seems to be ignoring more serious disciplinary issues in favor of strictly enforcing the dress code.[/quote]
