[quote=Anonymous]I find it interesting that STA, NCS, and GDS provide no data on their website about the percentage of faculty and students of color. I did find the information for Sidwell's students: 54% and Maret: faculty 37%, students 51%. Now that clearly does not guarantee equity and inclusion, but I think, OP, that would be good information to ask about. I think it's hard to get a glimpse of the underlying culture of a school during a typical admissions season let alone now. I think you have to go in knowing that STA has a terrible reputation and is likely not very diverse. Is it fair? No, but it may well be reality, and how does that affect your decision? Your child may face a similar racial make-up if they go to an Ivy for college, but the liberal culture may provide a little insulation from constant microagressions. [/quote]
