[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh gosh - sounds like your kid would be better at a more 'mainstream' school with a focus on social and academics (maybe SFS)?. Burke kids tend to be a bit quirkier. The school handled the shooting really well in terms of supporting kids and we were so grateful for that. Unfortunately, the emotional/mental health of kids (particularly in HS) is problematic. From our experience, there were a lot of kids struggling with their mental health - including self-harm. We ended up moving our kid to our local public high school - where she experienced more diversity -  both of thought and socioeconomic status. Also - while there absolutely lots of gender fluidity and confusion in the the DMV area we'd say that about 40 percent of her grade presented as nonbinary (which doesn't reflect the data  in terms of the general population).

This all seems very class specific.  We haven't seen any of that in our grade.
