[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Darn I was hoping this was about the kids nicknames for these schools. [/quote] Ooooh that is a good one and definitely part of a school's brand/identity. Honestly, it could probably be its own thread although I'm blanking on actual nicknames I've hear beyond the obvious (dropping "The" and "School" from names, dropping "Friends" from Sidwell, calling Washington International School "WIS") except Beauvoir I've heard called "Bear School". I think another interesting offshoot in this would be the kid's unique jargon for the school. Like I know at my brother's all boys school they called Saturday Detentions "jugs" (standing for justice under god). I will definitely be thinking on this one more this weekend on the playground. So thank you for that :) sorry I disappointed you, because you definitely added something positive for me![/quote] I’m afraid the nicknames are much more creative and not as positive.[/quote] Ooooh yeah I feel like that’s a whole different thread 😂 I’d absolutely be reading that one too🍷[/quote]
