[quote=Anonymous]Those that are singing SSAS praises, you must definitely be white. It is not a place for black or beige people. I visited SSAS and was treated like garbage by the staff even though I dressed impeccably. The best part is you can't even say that I must have said something to agitate them. All I did was park my car and walk in to take the damn tour. No one even said hello to me, I had to say it first then they were like oh yes, right this way.

I randomly run into SSAS parents around Alexandria. A-holes, every last one of them and their kids are being raised in the same tradition. For example, I see two blonde waspy SSASs couples once a month socially for the past 2 years and they refuse to acknowledge my existence. I get that most white people in DC are socially awkward, but when we keep seeing each other at the social functions month after month, would it kill you to at least say hello to me when you run into me at whole foods or safeway instead of staring at me? At one birthday party, a SSAS 7 year old was chasing my 4 year old around the yard with a toy sword and the dad was just standing there in his loafers chuckling while my son was terrified of getting hit. I went over there and loudly within ear shot of the dad said c'mon sweetie, big kids are playing here and you can get hurt so let's go inside. If it was the other way around, if my south Asian kid was the perp, that guy would have called the cops on me and my kid for attempted assault.

Most SSAS alums over the age of 40 in Alexandria that I meet, love living in Alexandria, hate SSAS. [/quote]
