$54,000 Tuition Doesn't Buy What it Used To

This is what you get for your money, at the prestigious Riverdale Country Day School:

A nice campus:

Things look good when you search it up on the internet as well.  $54K large is big number, but things seem OK at first glance:

There's a nice building in the background, some happy students, and what looks like a decent school setting.  And you get lunch.  Nice.

Unfortunately, you also get WOKE to the extreme.  This was written in a paper by the head of the Upper School, Tom Taylor:

"In light of the deeply embedded and largely unexamined neoliberal ideologies in the foundation of NAIS [National Association of Independent Schools] (and thus in independent schools as a broadly constructed segment of the education landscape), it would appear that such schools are fundamentally problematic spaces."

His own school is 'problematic'.  This guy is crapping on his own workplace.  But wait, there's more!

"Thus, private schools who find parents unwilling to accept moves toward culturally responsive schooling are free to draw a line in the sand, so to speak, and assert firmly and positively a philosophy of education that is explicitly anti-racist, decolonizing, and culturally affirming."

When you look over what he writes, you'll see that 'whiteness' is problematic, and that meritocracy is bad. It must be nice to be in an ivory tower, willing to let people of color avoid doing things of merit, thinking about them as if they're ants, unable to control their own destiny in the face of so many oppressors.  I wonder if T. Taylor lives in the nice neighborhood or the bad neighborhood?

I suppose the Woke Mind Virus has infiltrated the parents at this school as well.  Who would pay for this? You can read babble like this for free.  You don't need it in your child's "education".

Taylor should come to the Bad Neighborhood school and pop off with this clownish stuff.  He'd last about 15 minutes.
