[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Im genuinely baffled by how many of my child’s friends that weren’t asked for an interview. These kids had 4.0s or close to it, took the hardest classes, and were excellent students and leaders in their schools. I understand they don’t look at GPA much and no CAPE, but I’m surprised that they were passed over. [/quote] I think it is a moment of reflection. I was genuinely put off by the parents at SWW Open House. They were thirsty to put it mildly. If you could actually look at these comments as a neutral observer you would see people who respond to rejection with entitlement versus curiosity as to what their teachers truly feel about their kids. Take a moment of reflection. You might now have the full picture of why kids were rejected. If I can sense the thirst on open house night, I can only imagine what the teachers feel from the parents writing the recommendations. That is toxicity no standardized test can pick up but it the type that needs to be rooted out of positive developmental environments.[/quote]
