[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I grew up in CCDC about 30 years ago. At that time no kids I knew went to Murch, Lafayette, or Janney. Eaton and Hearst were actually the best schools. [/quote] omfg. Janney and Lafayette have been [i]the exclusive province of middle-class people[/i] since their inception in ~1930. To a lesser extent, so has Murch. At no point in their histories have any of these three schools had major demographic shifts. If you don't believe this, you can educate yourself by looking at the class photos over the decades. And PP, I grew up in Forest Hills during the 1960s - 1980s, and many of the neighborhood kids went to Murch, as did I. [/quote] I guess you are saying I am lying? Or maybe my experience was just different than yours. [/quote]
