“Nowhere to go” —- seriously?!

Anyhow, privates outside of the beltway will have space.

Yes, the power of the anonymous chat room. Must have been us. Or maybe the millions in fraud, Embezzlement, as well as lies, and broken promises.

No. It’s their parents’ faults. To the bottom of the private waitlists or — gasp — horror — public school.

Very few private schools are accepting students, especially Upper School students for the 2022-23 year. It looks like the rising seniors who thought about returning to Whittle will have to attend public school.

Why should Whittle kids get to jump waitlists?

I heard that one teacher will be teaching at Madeira School. At least he will be in a much better position than at Whittle.

Hopefully with the teacher shortage, the teachers will be able to find a position even though it’s late to be looking. The harder thing will
be for the students to find a spot elsewhere if they want to continue in a private school.
