[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]VM parents strongly support Taylor's plan. We want Woodward, not WJ. [/quote]

No, you support Taylor's plan. And that is fine. But stop pretending that you speak for the entire VM community.[/quote]

The opinions in the VM parent Whatsapp group are largely unanimous. Are you a current VM parent? [/quote]

I don't question that what you are saying about sentiment on WhatsApp is true. But I find it mind-boggling that there would be such a strong consensus not to select a school that will almost certainly have better class offering, better teacher and overall better academic reputation. Not to mention that Woodward will be stuck with the art magnet, additionally diverting resources from things that matter. [/quote]

We don't want a pressure-cooker W school. Our cluster doesn't want our mostly first-gen Hispanic children to have to compete with hordes of wealthy privileged white kids who have private tutors and SAT prep. We purchased our home in Randolph Hills anticipating that our kids could go to school in a diverse, welcoming environment with many people like them, not shipped off to Bethesda to be the token diversity population.

How is keeping your kids with “many people like them” diversity? Sounds like you want to hold your kids back instead of sending them to an objectively better school- crab in a bucket mentality.[/quote]
