- I think it's a nice gesture. I hate the grinchy attitude here.
- Not a mistake I'd you know the cookies will most likely be eaten by others. The card is what matters
- ignore those people. I work in a school, the treats are eaten. I think it is really sweet
- i am not a teacher but i would not be so quick to eat random, home baked things...

- NYC Schools How are the academics at Town School? It doesn't seem particularly intense, but exmissions from Town are quite strong (which must mean the academics are reasonably good?)
- I dont think the exmissions are that good - a couple of Dalton and Stuyvesant and what else?
- Actually, it looks like you're right. The exmissions are here: https://thetownschool.org/our-approach/high-school-placement
- Nobody gets into Town.
- that's a joke, right?
- I think because Town has a nursery school which feeds into K, they don't have a lot of K spots. Hence "nobody gets into Town.
- It’s an old inside UB joke. Had to be there.
- nephew did.
- Sigh.

- Doesn't need to be through 12th

- Yes the gentler private’s like Brooklyn friends, Calhoun, LREI, Dwight, Berkeley Caroll
- OK - NYC is crazy. A kid like this anywhere else would be fine. So basically if you are just an average kid you don't have any chance at most privates in the City?
- Where did I say that. Those are all really great schools. Just not ultra competitive. Btw my dc attends one of them and we are thrilled
- Coming from public and feeling very discouraged!
- There are competitive schools in many cities. There are also lots of schools for average kids.
