Can you please describe exactly what happened here? Did you make a complaint?

I went to high school in the 90’s and I can remember probably less than 1% LGBT’s at my public school. My kids are 11 and 12 and not LGBT so far, but I’m just wondering if it is more prevalent nowadays, more prevalent at the independent schools, or are we just talking about it to ensure they are protected and others are educated about them?
They are important members of our society and should be valued and protected.

It’s fashionable nowadays since it counts as diversity, and it’s an easy claim for a white UMC family to make.

I am new to this thread. My child went to FH over a decade ago. Maybe things have changed somewhat since then but it doesn't seem like it. My child had ADHD. From the moment he walked into that classroom as a kindergartener, I received almost weekly messages from the teachers. He wasn't sitting the right way, he was touching door knobs while walking in line down the hallway, why is his lunch packed with olives and cheese instead of crackers like the other kids, he didn't put his backpack in the bin the right way....Eventually he was counseled out. Yet there was a child in his class who was physically aggressive and his mother told me he had ODD. That family contributed a lot to the school. Their son was never counseled out. I have never forgiven that school for their mistreatment of my son, their insensitivity, and the disparity of treatment between wealthy donating families and families like us who could not donate as much. Now we are doing much better financially and my child has outgrown many of his issues. He's doing extremely well in school. I have younger children still but I will never, ever send them to FH.

can anyone compare Georgetown to George Mason pls?

Well they are both non-secular k-12’s in the same area. I don’t have kids at either, but I’d think they are similar.

+ 1

There are people on this board who act like one is dramatically better than the other, but in the real world they are often compared.

I’ll bet most of the Virginia kids that look at Potomac, also look at Flint Hill, and vice versa.
