No I agree. One persons “demanding” is another persons “just do your basic job.” I get that covid was hard to impossible, but you know I very much feel that parental feedback is valuable.
I will say that while Deerfield is clearly the most challenging of these schools, I do also know that Taft has a big stake in keeping grades above a certain level. Admins will just order teachers to change grades they deem “too low.”
I’m also floored that so many schools seem to have their school profile on display - Groton’s is a closely guarded secret as far as I can tell. For good reason!
