    We attended a choir concert at the National Cathedral attended by about twelve schools.  We unfortunately sat next to the Landon choir who during the performance were talking, laughing, lounging with their legs on chairs and generally acting boorish.  I got up twice, walked over and asked them to quiet down.  The Landon Choir Director in charge just shrugged his shoulders when I asked for some help with the lack of decorum.  My subsequent letters to the Head of School and the Dean of Students both went unanswered so I know who helps cultivate these poor manners.  They are probably both dealing with bad press generated from the lacrosse murder trial. Avoid Landon![/quote]

Shocking!  A group of boys did not want to stay still during a church service.  Wow!  Get a life![/quote]

Not surprising, it comes from their parents/defenders too.

Really, the more the Landon community posts, the deeper the hole gets.[/quote]

I am the P that expressed such shock.  I have nothing to do with Landon, attended another local private myself, and my son attends even another one.    The idea that a group of boys might act less than perfect at a church service bothers me none.   Did noboby here sit in the back row in any class?  Does everybody here have perfect kids who say yes to everything, sit still when asked?  What bores?  Personally, I remember spending most of my time in church service in the back room with the other ushers.  Some say I turned out okay, having attended a top local high school, one of the top liberal arts schools in the country, and a top 10 graduate school.    [/quote]

blah, blah, blah.  Please spin off.  [/quote]
