[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. Schools get reputations for a reason. As time goes on, unless action is taken to change the culture of the school and its reputation, they become self-reinforcing. Woodson has a reputation of being a very competitive school, academically, with some unhappy kids. When the school and the community works to change that reputation, it will change. That hasn't happened yet. [/quote] Mom with a son who went to Woodson who posted upthread. I agree with this. I don't think the school -- from admin to teachers -- really has embraced the issue. During my son's time, there was A LOT of talk but very little concrete changes to how students are emotionally supported and how to walk back some of the crazy intensity and competitiveness. Some people want this for their kids, so they seek it out. Others don't, so they avoid it. [/quote]
