Whitman and Churchill say, "Hold my beers", rookies.


Paying 25-50% more for the same house in Whitman or Churchill makes you less racist and a better person generally despite being more walled off from people who look different or come from different backgrounds.

No, it does not. It makes you more racist and a worse person

Greenwood principal is terrible and the parents and teachers may pull a coup if she doesn’t slow her roll.


What has the greenwood principal done to piss off the parents and teachers?

I hear good things about Sherwood but am surprised it doesn't have more merit scholars and higher scores.


We had significant difficulty at greenwood getting paperwork home for our child all year despite having multiple meetings about it. The school refused to increase communication or help our child pack up their backpack. Extremely frustrating for a parent of a kid with disabilities. Many of the good teachers have left

I can't take anyone seriously who right off the bat says this BS.

That's great to hear since our greenwood es experience with Jennifer seidel and staff has been terrible. Looking forward to a competent administrator.
