[quote=Anonymous]I've been a PP (I think the less snarky one) that is somewhat skepitcal that my DC could receive an education equivalent to a majority middle/upper income school as in a majority low-income school, even if it has a substantial representation of upper/middle income and is experiencing rapidly shifting demographics. The boosters of Barrett here make a passioned case, but really I imagine every learning environment (even the most elite prep schools) is going to have drawbacks, and what I'm hearing from those currently in these schools and posting in defense, is what the OP asked for, an honest assessment of the drawbacks...I'd really welcome one of the Barrett defenders here to balance their case, by also talking about some of the drawbacks they've experienced given the somewhat unique demographic mix in the school....[/quote]
