[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A few days ago my DC told me of a house party that his class was planning on throwing, renting a house in "a secluded, forest-y area" for an entire weekend. Between then and now I received an email from the principal of the upper school [i]strongly[/i] discouraging me from letting my son attend this party (including a reminder that the "School will report serious disciplinary decisions to colleges")--and now I have so many questions. First, I do agree that on a drinking/drugs/sex level this party sounds like a very bad idea, but a) is it really? and b) is it really within the school's jurisdiction to try to interfere?[b] Second, to me it seems as though Sidwell (the senior class, beyond that I don't really know) is spiraling out of control. With everything from behavior at sporting events to underage drinking citations and parties with the police getting involved (not to mention the even more recent tragic news of on-campus sexual assault)[/b], I have become legitimately worried for my DC's well-being and the well-being of the rest of his classmates. I get that senior year (especially this semester) is supposed to be fun, but where do these kids draw the line?[/quote]

Translaion: Sidwell is suppose to be above all of this. Our kids are perfect and would never do this type of thing like the Landon kids.

Surprise - your kids are no better than anyone else. I am sure you were one of the posters on Landon forums talking about how bad the atmosphere is and what Landon is doing to make these kids do all this horrible stuff.[/quote]
