Not anymore. They've become way more strict and selective with who they accept, like every other school.

If we are a regular frum family then what school do we have a chance of getting into? We’d like to move to Haverstraw as soon as interest rates come down. Kids are toddlers/babies. We don’t have a tv, I am careful with tznius. My husband is working and has strong yeshiva values. I really want a mainstream yeshivish school but don’t know how hard it is to get into that nowadays.

So in Monsey it’s a real mix lots came from the city to become in a sense shtoddy and better and in a sense have some rebellion in them. Some can’t send to their own chassidus cause they don’t follow there rules and no one else will accept them.

Why is the act of not accepting everyone considered “cleaning” a school?

Absolutely disgusting for lack of a better word.

We are chassiddim that don’t want to send to chassiddish schools.

When you call people like us wannabe’s, you are lumping everyone together and making assumptions about our intentions. Let alone putting yourself on a pedestal as if people envy you, whoever you are. It’s pretentious, condescending, rude and mean. We just want to live our life the way we understand is the right way.

Chassiddish places won’t work for us. If it’s a strict chassiddish place, our values don’t align. Lenient chassiddish places don’t work either because we specifically want a disciplined place that’s confident with their rules and isn’t afraid to impose them when they feel they’re important. And still, because our values are aligned, we have no problem following them.

If you look at us with disdain, please get out of your self righteous bubble and work on your middos.

There are legitimate concerns about influences and school environments. These are important considerations. But the schools that I admire are the ones that can stick to their principles without compromise and without stereotyping.
