[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] All the women are administrative people. Check the website. No women teachers. No women in leadership positions. Go for it. [/quote]

I posted earlier that my son shadowed and did not like the school.  He is at another wonderful all boys school, and this year he has quite a few woman teachers.  I can't imagine what it would be like to have no female interaction for the entire academic year with the exception of a few lower level admin people.  I believe this sends a poor message to boys about women.[/quote]

What message do boys get from all female teachers? No female interaction? What about mothers, sisters, and the rest of the world? Boys benefit from good male role models. The Heights teachers are strong role models for my sons. We looked at the other all boys school in Potomac and didn't find the male teachers of the same caliber. Much more chauvinist/jock oriented. And they have female teachers so go figure. The Heights strives to help parents raise men that are good citizens, fathers, sons. Check for yourself and listen to some of their podcasts. You don't need to be a Heights parent to benefit from their approach to teaching boys. [/quote]
