[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We all know what school you are talking about, FYI.  IMO, why don't you write a letter to the school that details all of your valid concerns.  I happen to know what school you are talking about because parents are always complaining about it in the private school forum.  I can't understand why you don't organize, band together, write a letter/petition, and give it to the board.  The school is founded on justice and using your influence in positive ways, so why don't you try that before pulling out of a school that your child enjoys?[/quote]

For those in the back row, it’s GDS.

Because OP’s child is a white boy so at minimum, such complaints will fall on deaf ears and beyond that, they run the risk of being seen to be leaving for reasons other than college admissions.

The school should institute AP classes, which they announced they were stopping well before this lady’s kid entered high school, because she complains? Sure make it about her kid being a white boy and not because it’s an insane demand to make on a school. Example 21836295 of misguided white victimhood. [/quote]

Leaving GDS for BCC is misguided white victimhood.... :roll: [/quote]

No. Thinking the school would refuse to restart AP classes because a white kid asked for it (as opposed to the fact that it’s an insane demand) is an example of misguided white grievance. Leaving GDS for BCC because you think it will help your kid get into a state flagship is a first world problem. [/quote]
DP.. yes, and we live in a first world.  I don't blame OP's DS for thinking about it. College admissions is brutal.
