St James vs. Our Lady of the Wayside in AH - Better choice/academics/rep?

When people complain about D25, they are generally offended by the brown people.

We hardly have any brown people in AH. This is silly and may be isolated to Ivy Hill. My kids have attended Dryden, OMG, Greenbrier, Windsor and then South for middle school.

They are all good schools. They have high academic standards and a lot of focus on student emotional intelligence. There are a lot of supports for students if they get behind or experience a crisis or have a learning disability.

I think that Thomas is considered better than South Middle School. South feeds into Prospect H.s. while Thomas feeds into Hersey. Hersey is considered the better H.S. but Prospect is good too.

We did experience the same divisions over remote education vs. classroom education and mask vs no mask. It was disappointing because I consider our community one that believed in solutions, cooperation and science.
