[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]@1:30 Are you able to share what informed this feeling? I am sure it is not the only campus, but we don't know how to identify such an environment, particularly from a distance. What specifically did you notice? You put words to our concern, but it's tough to define/identify. We are really looking for a truly integrated community. Thank you for your help.[/quote] I don’t know what you mean by “truly integrated” nor what 1:30 meant by saying “we’d” be on the outside. If she expected to make connections with other, wealthier parents, (that’s inappropriate and) no wonder she was disappointed. But if your child is outgoing, smart, and athletic, they will do just fine at SPS. It’s a hell a lot of more egalitarian and inclusive than Exeter, for instance. Although if your child has social anxiety or introverted tendencies, I think Exeter or another larger school with day students might be better, offering a bit more anonymity and the chance to “escape” when needed.[/quote]
