[quote=Anonymous]OP again, my wife also makes a good point that when I went to public school growing up, I was subject to a lot of taunts and kind of indifferent teachers. We had a lot of white ethnics that like to make racial jokes, so when my friends dropped a fly ball, hearing "you stupid chink," "you fool Hindu" or "you dumb Mick" and the gym teachers just acted like it was just boys being boys. I assume that stuff isn't tolerated anymore, but I KNOW it wouldn't be tolerated at this school. And they at least genuinely seemed interested in my family and strongly encouraged us to apply, where a lot of other schools were kind of indifferent and it was hard to get a word in with the head of schools or admissions directors (especially the elite ones famous for being diverse and inclusive).
