[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Moderation. Looking at curriculum, you can see that GDS’s focus in its English and History departments trends more toward reactionary politics of the further left variety, but that could just be a product of the advocacy they encourage their students to undertake. Potomac does not seem particularly right wing—plenty of people are drawn to the academics, the green space, and the absence of religion in the classroom. Plenty to make progressives happy in that.[/quote] Yes, that is the unfortunate part of GDS. But the green space is in the middle of a suburb. That alone will bring more preppy traditional atmosphere. It really depends on the kids. Growing up in a communist country, I learned most history by reading and that helped me with critical thinking as I do no believe the textbooks. [/quote]
