I agree.  It sounds like there is Whitman envy on this board.  [b]My kids don't brag about money because we don't have much of it![/b]  I can say that my kids work their butts off at Whitman and have gotten amazing educations.  As far as I am concerned the county can stick their PARCC tests up their asses.[/quote]

If you are zoned for Whitman, you probably actually do have a lot of it. Maybe not compared to your neighbors, but compared to people in Montgomery County, in Maryland, and in the US, you do. I wish that affluent people would stop saying that they don't have a lot of money.[/quote]

This x1000.  If you live in a W-school district, by and large you have a lot of money relative to everyone else in the county.  How can any parents advocate that their kids to complete blow off a test regardless of whether it "matters"?[/quote]

Sure, but people were responding to posts claiming Whitman kids were rich entitled asses compared to the down to earth folks at BCC and WJ.  The majority at all these schools are quite privileged relative to the country as a whole, not to mention the county.  No one is denying that, but people are disputing that Whitman is any different on this front than the other schools mentioned.[/quote]
