[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is the drug issue overblown? I am the OP.[/quote] Although some kids at GDS do drugs and drink on the weekends, like every other high school, it's a great place for kids who do not drink or do drugs, because the school is open every day until 10pm, so there is an alternative to going to parties. Unlike at other schools which lock the doors at 5pm and stay closed on weekends, there are always kids at GDS playing chess, participating in clubs like Quiz Bowl, Debate, Math Team, teaching each other how to program, hanging out with teachers discussing ideas, or just shooting the breeze. My kids would have been miserable at a school where the only after hours activity was sports and the dominant social activity was going to parties.[/quote] It doesn't sound like those kids are getting crushed by the homework load, then.[/quote]
