[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are in Wootton cluster. Not a fan. Too many drugs and parents who don't care as long as the kids make the grades.[/quote]

We chose to not live in W district on purpose. Yes, every school has its issue, but it seems that at these wealthy schools, there is a lot more drugs since most of the kids have $, and the parents just bail them out.  I feel like "affluenza" is prevalent here.

read the thread on the US/News World report Best High school ranking.  there are postings about these W schools and the issues there.  I know a few people that went to Wootton.  They hated it because of the cliques and conceited attitude.  Of course, there are issues at the non-W schools like fighting and such, but at least at those schools, the kids don't usually get bailed out by their parents.  So, there at least, kids are being punished and not getting away with bad behavior as much.

RM has various SES students, and it is quite large.  I know a parent whose son goes there. He said there are groups for any type of person; it's easier to find "your people" in that school.  And there are lots of kids there that take AP but there are a fair number of kids that don't.  Your DC will be able to find a group to fit in both socially and academically in these larger non-W schools.[/quote]

You sound very insecure and jealous.  The W schools are big enough that kids with diverse interests find their place or people. They just have better academics and fewer kids engaging in misconduct.  Did you read about the 18 year old sophomore at RM arrested for having sex in a hallway with a 14-year-old?  Oy vey.

Did you hear about the Churchill kid that overdosed and had crack and guns. Or the suicide this week in another W school?[/quote]

Post links please[/quote]

You can google hockey player umcp Churchill.

The suicide is not in the paper but should be in the obituary today or tomorrow. Why would there be an article about it?[/quote]
