I'm not the person arguing otherwise. The difference, I suppose, is that the class composition is going to be different so it's hard to compare. HM has much more control over that, and the kids are generally high-achievers with very few exceptions.

Hi. I used to teach dance at Horace Mann. There was every "kind" of kid and definitely some neurodiversity in my class.

Hi. Are you suggesting that neurodiverse children can't be high-achieving?

It’s really not nice. DC has nicer suburbs than NY.

Disagree. Maybe equal but not better. But a topic for a different thread.

Chevy Chase is way more tasteful than Scarsdale, and that doesn’t even address the residents of both. Chevy Chase has better country clubs, too. The accents in Scarsdale…..

Again. Why the obsession with Scarsdale? Lots of other nice suburbs in NYC. Though I will tend to agree that Chevy Chase is hard to match as it is a very nice suburb and has better proximity to the actual city than most NYC suburbs do. A better comp for Chevy Chase is somewhere like Bronxville.

Still trying to figure out what this has to do with the thread topic, but anyhoo...

Bottom line is top kids at a school like that are as good as any school in America. But it is a public school that can’t cherry pick so has plenty of less smart kids also.

I went to a large diverse public school in a socioeconomically diverse suburb. In absolute numbers we got as many kids into ivies as Dalton, Trinity, etc. But we also had kids join the military, work construction, or go to community college. Welcome to the real world.

Then your friend’s an idiot for buying the house. There’s also eight figure houses in Mount Kisco and Stamford. You’d have to be a moron to spend that much in any of those places. He probably went to public school….

As if my secondary school would ever associate with a school like that. We’d leave the city limits for squash games, though. Brunswick wasn’t that far.

I don’t associate with people working trades or joining the military out of desperation. Born and raised in high white collar America and gladly remained. K-12 private, Ivy, great career. Your “real world” sounds cute from afar.

You are an embarrassment to whatever Ivy you claim to have gone to (I call BS on that). You are low class trash. People raised "the right way" don't talk about others like that. Go back under the rock you crawled out from.

And on the off chance you played squash (also calling BS on that), Brunswick would have whupped your sorry backside. Harlem Children's Zone would have whupped your sorry backside.

Brunswick isn’t as dominant as you may think. It wasn’t in my day. So funny, you are assuming an anonymous commenter’s athletic abilities (in addition to socioeconomic status and education, beyond what they have outlined). If a product of StreetSquash ever beat me when I was competing I would’ve quit the sport in embarrassment (along with my memberships). Fortunately, I was very good and they…. aren’t good.

My Ivy loves me (and my three children who went or go now). If you think an Ivy cares about your conduct so long as it doesn’t enter the news and you write checks, you are sorely mistaken.

I can't believe I'm wasting my time with a loser like you but Brunswick won nationals last year. So they are kind of good. But of course you know everything about everything. So sad. Now go grab your ICE badge and ski mask and get back to work abusing people and violating their civil rights. Trump doesn't like his idiots wasting time online.

If you had said Trinity (College), that’s a real dynasty worth mentioning.

Who said anything about politics or immigration? I’m not a Republican or Trump voter. Non sequiter

I said I want my steak medium, loser. Get back to work.

You do realize that not everyone who disagrees with you has a bad lot in life, right? The ad hominems against posters goes one way here.

It’s a troll. None of it is real. Don’t engage.

Hysterical how that man has fantasies of TT alums supporting ICE and Trump. Totally butt hurt with bizarre views of how Ivy alums and squash players act.

You're blaming the responder? They are messing around with the idiot anti-Scarsdale person. They are playing 3D chess while the anti-Scarsdale crusader is playing checkers. The anti-Scarsdale person is name checking some things to try to sound important but clearly knows absolutely nothing (as demonstrated by their ignorance about Scarsdale and public schools in general).

But anyway, let's move on. How about those NYC privates!
