[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I am a DC resident zoned for J-R with kids at private schools now. We are considering J-R because all of the kids we know who are there now are having a good experience. They play lots of sports or are involved with clubs and theater and a few hold jobs IN tenley afterschool.

Which is all to say that while there may be elements of the school population whose behavior isn't ideal, it doesn't seem to affect the kids we know there at all. They go about their business, just as they would anywhere else. Unless you think your kid would be likely to be drawn to a group of kids who smoke pot in front of the CVS, I wouldn't worry about that issue.[/quote]

except my kid has to be in “honors for all” 9th grade English with the stoned kids. And of course, a city/school that normalizes kids getting openly high also has no interest in enforcing good & safe behavior inside the school. Sure those of you who can afford private (and hence likely pay your way into a decent college) have less at stake. But there are many parents with kids who don’t have all those advantages so yes, we care about this kind of thing. [/quote]
