[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lol, the two schools they may move into are better than BCC and they want to keep their kid in BCC. Stop clutching your pearls. No one cares. [/quote]

Most of us feel BCC is a better choice. Those schools you seem to like so much have a terrible record with hate crimes. [/quote]

No. Good Lord. You have no sense at all. For years now there has been a small handful of kids who like to rile up the Bethesda community by drawing offensive symbols. They are not antisemites (there are many people of Jewish descent here - my street is three quarters Jewish). They discovered that this symbol triggered the strongest reaction, which is what they're looking for. And since the wealthy schools are constantly under the microscope and any incident in a wealthy public gets amplified on DCUM, because a portion of the community loves to dump on wealthy suburbs... that's how people like you get the wrong end of the stick.

BCC has lately had a problem with drugs that has been much discussed on DCUM. There are drugs everywhere, that's understood, but this year it's been worse at BCC. Since dealers and users are all students and graduate at some point, such clusters are fluid and can pop up and disappear at all schools.

You need a little context and perspective on area high schools, PP. There is absolutely no question at all that academically, BCC is the poor cousin of W schools. It's a solid school. But Whitman and Churchill are better for academics.
