We are in Virginia and looking.  I am hearing better things about Flint Hill in more current posts.  How do these schools compare today.  Is this old post stil relevant?[/quote]

Potomac far more "woke" than Flint Hill.

Really?  My DS applied to FHS last year (ended up somewhere else) and they required a bunch of essay questions. (Parents had to write a bunch, too. To the point it was a bit of a turn off for the school). Several of them had to do with DEI and its importance.  I’m in favor of DEI initiatives so the topic did not bother me, but it doesn’t seem like FHS is an anti-PC bunch.[/quote]
Well they didn’t stand in solidarity with the “black at” movement on Instagram.  There was no page.  Someone did how ever create “Dear Flint Hill”, where any minority or gay student who experienced micro aggressions could share (not the same), but stopped sharing student’s experiences after about 95 posts were shared.
Are they scared of black issues at Flint Hill? Hope they aren’t “Toming” over there or expecting Blacks to do so.  That is somewhat a turn-off. [/quote]

We got a very thinly veiled anti-gay attitude from the admissions department.  We did not experience that at any of the other schools.  My DD chose and is now attending Holton.[/quote]
