[quote=Anonymous] Where are the parents in this story? Even if you have the most hands-off parenting style, a student doesn't go from public to private, flail academically, face the prospect of expulsion, without some sort of parental input. I might have been inclined, had he been my son and if he were not succeeding academically at Sidwell, to consider Montrose Christian where he was thinking of transferring. They've got great athletics and academically likely would have been less of a leap, coming from Wheaton. I don't think I'd particularly have welcomed a campaign by students to keep him in a school that appeared from week one to be a poor fit. The parent piece just seems an odd almost omission (other than the passing mention about dad supporting his son's basketball practice) in what aspires to be a feel-good story, but which strikes me as a bit off.
