[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you realize that labeling the Ws as you do is just as bad as those labeling the hinterlands and ganglandia? It's offensive. [b]Not everyone at a W school is wealthy and white[/b]. When you make those sweeping generalizations, you only make yourself look bad.[/quote] But lots of people are - which is the whole reason for some people's attraction to these schools. Not everybody's, but definitely some people's. And hey, it doesn't just happen in Bethesda and Potomac - I live in the Siberian Hinterlands and have heard ridiculous assertions IN REAL LIFE about Quince Orchard (great school!) vs. Northwest (OMG gangs!!!1!!).[/quote] Yep. We are districted to QO and I had a neighbor tell me, "It's a good thing we're not districted to Gaithersburg HS. Eek!" [/quote]
