[quote=Anonymous]I've had more than one son go through the school, and I've volunteered there a lot. It's a wonderful place. And my sons are very glad that they went to STA. The social dynamic varies greatly by entering class. Whether it's a friendly, open class or a more clique-ish class, parents do play a part. That's why -- when there is a cliquish class -- it's worst in the lowest grades. For starters, in those grades a whole cohort came over from a single school. And the parents of young boys have more say in their child's social life than later when their sons are older. When the waves of new kids arrive in Form I and Form III, things open up quite a bit! This dynamic happens at many schools, not just at STA. STA is actually better than some other schools on this score, but again -- it does vary by class. Things get much better as they grow older![/quote]
