[quote=Anonymous]I think it depends on what grade or class you're talking about. I have two kids in the school and the culture of one grade has been muh more friendly and open. The other is dominated by cliquishness. So given this I can see why the posts above are so black and white. The school is large enough that anyone's individual experience can vary immensely. It depends on who is in your kid(s) classes and grade. Also, I get what was said about the sports teams. The teams are formed by parents. Our grade definitely has a soccer team that other kids jostle to get on but if you're not in the right crowd it won't happen. Other sports teams (basketball, baseball, girl's soccer) form entirely by email. If you know the right people, you get a spot because you hear about it via email. If not you get left out. There was quite a scene about this when certain teams formed this past year in one grade. [/quote]
