[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm neighbors with 2 rising first graders from Peabody, and both families have told me that almost the entire class is going to Watkins. A few more classes like that and Watkins will be a different place.[/quote]

I'm the parent of a rising First Grader from Peabody who will be going to Watkins.  I currently only know of two kids (from a total of four classes) in the entire school NOT going to Watkins.  I'm sure there are more than a handful, but, honestly, I just don't know of more than two, and I've been asking....(and I presently haven't heard of anybody going to MV, though maybe my kid's in another circle.)

As for SES status, if it's any indicator, I've been to A LOT of birthdays that cost over $500.  And The school's starting to look  like a mini-Boden catalog.

There's also a visible demographic shift between my K child's class and my Pk3 child's.  (The PK3 class is diverse, but my impression--based on no hard-data, but impressions from fellow parents--is that it's more uniformlyl higher SES.)

So you kids go to school in a benneton commercial? Or boden catalog?[/quote]
