[quote=Anonymous]We are Latinos and my daughter audition twice at the WSB. She was rejected both times. She was 7 and I didn’t know how to explain she could not study there after all her excitement. They were rude to me when I tried to find an explanation for why she disqualified. First time was about “not enough spots”, second time - “her feet are not straight”. That year all of her friends that were white or from wealthy families got in, some of them with less interest than our daughter. The selection process is not transparent, and they make the parents wait while they do the evaluation, so you have no idea of what they do in the room, especially if you are tying with a very young child. I am glad that we did not get in. I certainly don’t want our daughter in a toxic environment or surrounded by people with such limited minds. [/quote]
