[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were told by administration that two students were counseled out at the end of the freshman year. One because of behavior and one because of poor academic performance. The school worked very hard at finding another environment for each student. Senior year two students were expelled over winter break for cheating. Whenever I hear someone vehemently curse a certain big three I always wonder if it's one of those two parents.[/quote]

It speaks very poorly of the school that the administration would share this private information with everyone.[/quote]

I agree that it speaks very poorly of the school. It also is only the perspective of the school/a one sided view, so it could be biased. Did the student really have behavior problems or was it related to bullying/personality conflicts? Was it proven without a doubt the two seniors cheated or were they just accused? One of the problems with private school is that your kid can be expelled and there is no recourse. [/quote]

I think the original post is also phony.  Kids know when discipline has occurred, so I could see everyone in a community knowing about expulsions, but it is facially ridiculous to assume an "administration" informed parents about the details of counseling out of different kids.  Parent gossip?  Okay.  Administration telling other parents?  No.

I think people are trying to wind up the poor OP with these phony/malicious stories about schools that are evil cesspits of false accusations, classroom teachers who inform families of their contract status, and leaked confidential information.
