[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It comes down to this: if you don't like the education your DC is receiving, go to another school. Most of the people responding to this thread are clearly not GDS parents, but, rather, are people with partisan axes to grind.[/quote]

That's always the amazing part about parents who object to what is taught.  None of this is a secret when they apply.  They won't pull their kids no matter what because they worked too hard to get them in.  And 10 other parents are ready to put thier kid in DC's place, so it's impossible to leverage any pressure on the school.

People who choose known outcomes lose their right to moan about persecution or surprises.[/quote]

The people we know assumed it nailed it on all the academics and interwove some SJW. Now they see lack of transparency with parents (across all divisions) and it got more constant and more extreme during the recent BLM, lgbtqia2+, and CRT U.S. political movements. [/quote]

Parents write a $50K check to an institution that will influence their kids for 35 hours a week for nine months, and they "assumed" what that institution did?

That's hilarious.  But they still won't pull their kids, since it's one of the magically famous DC area privates.

Hey now, they heard it was “a good school.”[/quote]

This is a mean spirited post so not sure if my response will do any good but the vast majority of students enter in Pk/K.  It’s hard to get a full understanding of what each grade does.  It’s different if you enter in 9th grade, you will be entirely focused on high school curriculum.  It’s a great school and people use these forums to discuss anonymously if they should speak up about certain issues but there are other classes than English so many places for your child to step away from some of the heavier issues if they choose.

Not really; GDS is a school that is known to be woke from top to bottom. If you're good with that, it's the place for you.[/quote]
