[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So basically the gist is, don't ever give any actual experiences of any school, ever. If you praise it, you're a booster. If you don't like it, you are a hater, it's your fault, your child sucks, etc.

This not a forum for facts or experience. It a forum to talk about when dc schools will be gentrified enough that the right sorts will attend them. Any actual information about classes, academics, extracurriculars is irrelevant.

And don't forget, just to prove you're a real DC urban mom, you need to make sure you put everyone else down while expressing your opinion. Remember! They are quite obviously. It as smart, wealthy, or well-mannered as your labradoodle, let alone you and your beloved family.[/quote]

Not at all.

This is example of the anti-shepherd mom (ASM):

New thread: Can anyone tell me what the uniform is for Shepherd?
ASM: I can't tell you since I haven't been there in a few years and I'm no fan of Shepherd.

New thread: How was the Shepherd gala?
ASM: I hate that school. Went there, had bad experience, but wish you the best.

New thread: wow, shepherd's farm rate is reducing and more IB folks are going!
ASM: I hate that school

New thread: If I buy in Shepherd, do you think I will lose access to Deal?
ASM: who knows, but I am NO fan of the school anyway

New thread: Shepherd lost promised renovation funds in budget.
ASM: that project was done wrong, f-ING atrium and kilns!?, I'm not fan of the school anyway.

New thread: Shepherd is opening another PK3 class and it's all IB.
ASM: I don't know why, we hated it there.

Now to be fair she did post a pretty lengthy experience in one of the threads and her reason for leaving, but how does one really say these examples above are all "giving experiences"? What about these posts are productive and helpful?[/quote]
