[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will be honest…admission probably should be rescinded.

No boarding school is EXPELLING a kid final semester of senior year for anything other than a major incident.[/quote]

Parent of a boarding school kid and this is not true at all. DC's school is  strict and seems to like making examples of 17/18 year old kids who made a mistake. There have been a couple of seniors who have been asked to withdraw like OP's this year and every year we have been there.[/quote]

Give an example please.  What did a kid do that made them have to withdraw.[/quote]

Example 1. Vaping 2nd offense is one 4.0 unweighted GPA student with multiple leadership roles in EC's.

Example 2. Group of seniors got caught skipping class. One lied about who else was with them to protect their GF/BF. School disciplined all the kids. Kicked out /forced withdrawal the one who lied to protect their GF/BF and suspended the one who suggested the kid lie. The one who was suspended for suggesting the first kid lie also has this on their permanent record that will go to colleges. [/quote]
So, very valid reasons.  No college should want a student with substance abuse problems or a liar.[/quote]

Oh please, no public school is putting anything on a kids record for these types of issues. Get on the public school forums and read about cases of assault where kids aren't disciplined or criminally charged and the victims are the ones who have to move schools.[/quote]

Oh please.   "But look what he did" is not an excuse for your kid's reprehensible behavior.[/quote]
