[quote=Anonymous]GDS parent here. We scrambled (like dozens of other parents) got zero help from CC office and found that one of the Moco public schools allows AP testing for moco residents who go to school elsewhere.

Zero help from GDS. Had to make 20 calls to schools around the area. CCO didn’t lift a finger. Didn’t call schools for us. They did nothing.

I’ve written several at the school and have been grin-f*cked back by email from them. The GDS way.

I have come to despise this school after 3 kids here. Last one is done soon. It has markedly worsened in the last 5 years. Back when Kevin Barr was around, things ran better.

Now every administrator has a POV, an agenda and Russell is scared to engage any of them for fear of being labeled a racist by them.

Every consequential decision is driven by administrators who are sitting in their seats for the first time in their careers.

When a former DEI head at another school is named your a division principal and has zero school managerial experience, what do you expect will happen?

Like many hires across our society and many companies and organizations in 2020-2021, many many mistakes and over corrections were made in our collective zeal to do the right thing. Now the tide will go out and we will find out the toll this well meaning over correction took.

Feel free to hate on me.

Zero more donations to this school once my last kid is out in a year.

GDS parents. Unless your kid loves Tufts, Middlebury, Bates, Wesleyan, Bowdoin or Skidmore  (and their New England small college ilk) this school is not set up for your kid. GDS is increasingly focused on catering to these small New England colleges and performs for them.
