[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They take too many kids in special education. [/quote]

Yes, I see your point.  I can think of two kids in my DC's SAES graduating class who before coming to SAES for middle school had been in some type of "special education" through MCPS for some of their elementary school years.  After SAES, one of them attended one of the most selective universities in the country (think, single digit admissions rate) with a near perfect GPA from a competitive major that required a separate application after proving himself for three semesters, and is now thriving in his chosen field.  Another is now getting a PhD from a major national university that is ranked in the top 10 in that student's chosen STEM program.  They both still have many friends from SAES who they try to see when they are all back in town, and both periodically go back to SAES to visit their favorite teachers.  They are both very interesting, hard working, and polite young adults.  Yup, they must have been just awful influences on their high school classmates and the entire school, so I can certainly understand why you wouldn't want your children to attend any place that would be welcoming to these two scoundrels.

Totally made up.[/quote]

This PP must be the same who includes less than one liner derogatory comments on this thread, other SAES Threads and even unrelated threads every few days. Someone who clearly has no direct engagement with these various schools. With regard to the SAES posts, all of the substantive comments clearly come from individuals with direct or reliable indirect exposure to the school and for the most part accurately reflect the unique nature of the school and it’s track record of nurturing active, successful students for life. For all who respect and honor what makes this and similar dialogue helpful, Thank you.[/quote]
