That may be you but not me doll. Tanned and tucked don't make it to our happy hour.

The horror of having to explain to people that Nijinsky was a great ballet dancer and the best European racehorse of this century too.

See you at the My Lady's Manor point-to-point next year Ducks.

We know your type: lulu wearing Range Rover driving bleached and tucked. Bmore? Frosted pink lipstick, decades old diesel Benz driving grande dame and we wear our liver spots with honor.

This makes me want to love to Baltimore.

And yet not very accurate, plenty of the Range Rover driving blondes at Gilman/rpms/bm, and no one wearing frosted pink lipstick.

Tbh Roland Park is a little slice of heaven. Too bad you still can't walk around at night there. It would be a perfect suburb if it weren't for the rape and theft.

I live in the 21210. What are you talking about?

Are you suggesting the area is safe? Lmao feel free to post a source for crime statistics anywhere that could possibly corroborate your claim. If you can find me even one area of ANYWHERE in Baltimore that is remotely safe, I'll send you a crisp 5$ bill

Here's one:

There's been exactly 1 homicide in Roland Park in more than a decade. Please donate my $5 to a fund for workers currently unemployed due to COVID-19

Correct, especially Pre K.

It's true that if you've gone to an Ivy League university, you know people from Burroughs in St Louis, Punahou, Blake in Minnespolis etc. You'd associate those schools with people whose parents had incomes that were high for the area they lived in. Interestingly, Phi Beta Kappa kids were disproportionately from public school.

I went to Bryn Mawr college and until I moved to Baltimore had no idea that there was a secondary school called Bryn Mawr too!

However, I don’t think that means a thing. It’s a wonderful school and offers an excellent education. What do you care if people who are not in on the private school scene haven’t heard about it?

I'm confused by what you feel the list of schools is omitting. If you feel Bryn Mawr is no-name there really isn't any reaching you. What are the other Baltimore schools that are better??

New poster. Gilman, if you're talking about academic rigor and you aren't limiting it to girls schools.

Bryn Mawr is well known and respected in Baltimore, but outside of this area if you say Bryn Mawr people are going to think you're talking about the college. That's a challenge for Bryn Mawr when it comes to name recognition.

Bryn Mawr is the first girl’s college prep school in the country, founded by the same person as Bryn Mawr college to prepare girls to attend—they have the same name for a reason.

I know Bryn Mawr's history, because I live in Baltimore. I didn't know that before I moved to Baltimore, and when people asked me if I'd considered Bryn Mawr when looking for a school for my daughter, I had no idea what they were talking about; why would I look at a college for my young child? I am not alone. Bryn Mawr has a unique challenge when it comes to name recognition outside of Baltimore. Boarding is also seriously limited, so people outside of Baltimore are unlikely to be looking at the Baltimore day schools and have no reason to learn about Bryn Mawr (K-12, Baltimore) in contrast to Bryn Mawr (college, Pennsylvania). Day schools are usually going to struggle with name recognition outside of their geographical area, that shouldn't surprise anyone. More people will have heard of Phillips Exeter or Choate than Gilman.
