[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You only buy in SA if you can’t afford NA. Plain and simple truth. [/quote] True for some, not for all. Again, SA people are not all wannabes. I don't want to send my kid to a school where annual December ski vacations and trust funds are normative. [/quote] We are a ethnically mixed family who bought in SA. I don't buy the narrative that all the kids on the other side of Route 50 are skiing in Aspen or spending summers at their family's beach house. We know too many families who are just like us: 2 working parents trying to make do. We could have afforded to buy in some - not all, but some - neighborhoods in NA. We chose SA because we did want a bit more racial diversity, i.e. more kids that looked like ours in the classroom. But that doesn't mean the kids in NA are racist, or wouldn't be welcoming. [/quote]
