Not true. There are many Jewish families.


She will take their money, but she treats them poorly. Her racist attitude is well-documented.


From what I've observed firsthand and heard about through my DC's she is equal opportunity obnoxious. Even to those kids of WASP parents who are somebody.

Not a single one of the Jewish children in my DC's class at a Cathedral school (where I would guess about a third of the kids went to Mrs. Simpson's) was invited to participate. I would be shocked if (1) there are "many" Jewish children, and (2) Mrs. Simpson knows they're Jewish (though this is what her spies at the various schools are supposed to tell her).

Does anyone know of Mrs. Simpson's is still under the consent decree that they entered when they were sued for discrimination?

A lot of Sidwell kids attend during fifth and sixth grade, but not after that.

There are actually quite a few Maret kids there -- you can usually spot the boys because they seem so uncomfortable in their blazers. But as far as I can tell, they're all nice kids. GDS on the other hand? I suspect you'd be ostracized or scorned by the admin. and most other families if you enrolled your GDS child at such a thing as Cotillion.

What's wrong with wanting your child to learn how to dance at an early age, having basic manners reinforced in a social setting (i.e., not just mother telling you the do's and don'ts), and making new friends.

Why anyone would give this anti-semite the time of day, let alone money, is beyond me.

Has anyone sent their kids to the Capital Cotillion off-shoot dining etiquette classes? Are they worth it?

In response to that other thread asking where public school kids can learn to ballroom dance, Capitol Cotillion is a program open to all. It's great. I waltzed with DS at a relative's wedding just last weekend. It was wonderful. I was told by more than one man that they wished their moms had sent them to ballroom classes at a young age.

I am not nuts, I am jewish and I know EXACTLY what I am talking about -- so if you haven't been discriminated against by Mrs. S that's great for you but stop calling those of us that don't like her one bit crazy. the only crazy people are those that believe in this day and age that she is somehow still relevant.

And they don't tell mrs simpson they are jewish, as they go to the right schools and have the right connections.

She is a racist, anti semitic witch. But people still think she is the be-all end-all. Capital Cotillion will hopefully one day sink her dying discriminatory business.




You're nuts and don't know what you're talking about.
