[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a parent of high schoolers… I think you have a narrow perspective on this. My kids go to an MCPS school that would frighten you, and they are nonetheless surrounded by bright, responsible, high achieving kids. By high school, kids choose the subgroups they want to be in. There is a “bad crowd” at every school. Raise your children right so they have no interest in joining it.[/quote] Some schools have larger bad crowds. Others have larger good crowds. Also which kids gets a pass by the bad crowds depends on the dichotomy of the school. In some schools the bad crowds define the school. Pretending like it doesn’t matter seems to me like trying to rationalize your choices and how they affect your kids. That said how much could you know about success if the best you could do is one of the “frightening“ schools so I’m not sure anyone should listen to your words of “wisdom”[/quote]
