[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers kids, legacy kids. I see nothing with board members many of whom don’t even have kids currently at the school. All in all the school is great and better than most private are in terms of responsiveness. I feel that the unhappy people at Potomac would find a way to be unhappy anywhere. There are things to work on with sports being a big one. I feel like the school is great in course correcting when a problem comes up and have confidence that this one will be addressed and athletes will be happier. There are a few coaches who need to retire or dramatically change how they run their programs.
Athletes who leave the school or who choose to avoid coaches is an issue. I am convinced this is why the AD left. Will be nice
to see the new AD build on what the former started. I feel good about that.[/quote]

NP.  How can you possibly assess responsiveness compared to "most privates"?  How could you realistically know that the "unhappy people would find a way to be unhappy anywhere?"

I'm happy for you that you love the school. Truly.  But your dismissive responses to the experiences of others is honestly alarming.

The athletic problems (and others PPs have cited) have been happening for years.  The unfortunate truth IMO is that, as long as there is a line to get into the school and the money continues to flow, very little will actually change.[/quote]
