[quote=Anonymous]We don't want a pressure-cooker W school. Our cluster doesn't want our mostly first-gen Hispanic children to have to compete with hordes of wealthy privileged white kids who have private tutors and SAT prep. We purchased our home in Randolph Hills anticipating that our kids could go to school in a diverse, welcoming environment with many people like them, not shipped off to Bethesda to be the token diversity population. [/quote] [b]This makes me very sad. WJ is not that kind of place today. yes there is definitely a cohort that is like that, but in my opinion it’s toned down because of the economic diversity and because students don’t always get what they want at WJ (due to overcrowding, the kids share a lot and there are limits on teams, clubs, opportunities etc => less entitlement). It does make me feel good that VM and WW feel like Woodward will be a kinder, more welcoming place.[/quote][/b] You will be dodging a bullet with this angry racist being sent to Woodward. Hopefully most VM families are not like that.[/quote]
