[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to Eaton in the 80s. I loved it. It was considered one of the best, perhaps the best, elementary school in the city. What happened - [b]why are people dogging it[/b]?

Granted we then had a newly renovated building. It was full of kids from all walks of life - students  from 30 different countries ranging from low income immigrants to diplomats' kids, congressmen's kids, kids from all over the city. Very diverse. I am so grateful I got to attend - it truly made an enormous impact on who I am as a human being.[/quote]

Because people here LOVE to be down on other schools.

Eaton is still an incredibly diverse school in every way. I love that my kid is exposed to so many different walks of life. And we have lots of embassy kids, so I feel like she really does get a chance to learn about other countries' traditions as well as many parents will come present about their countries or do something for a holiday unique to their culture.

dp:  Er, no. I'm the "too crowded" poster and I am negative about it because my kids went there. We changed to a school we love.[/quote]
