[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the parent of a senior and reading this thread has been incredibly validating and depressing. There are themes here that repeat over and over.
1. Teachers are generally great
2. Administration sucks- specifically, it's unorganized and controlled by the DEI agenda that squashes sophisticated and nuanced discussion.
3. Kids generally are happy but if you make any mistake- especially something DEI related you will be cancelled
4. Russell is overpaid
5. The senior class this year is doing well vis a vis college admissions but that has to do with the specifics of the kids not the college office. And the jury is still out. Not all acceptances are back.[/quote]

Also a GDS HS and LS parent and you've got it right. Also agree that it's validating and depressing. What can we do? Given the turnover of administration throughout the school I fear nothing will be done for at least a year or two and by that time teacher retention is going to be an issue soon.

For the posters discussing grades on middle school reports - the issue is not the lack of grades on report cards.  The issue is that the middle school does not adequately prepare students for the rigor and expectations of high school. We experienced this first-hand with our high schooler. [/quote]
