Every school ends up with a minority-majority. No escaping it. PSBB does an outstanding job of staying secular and inclusive. There’s a Sai prayer, a Christian prayer, even 2 minutes of eye-shut silence if you don’t wanna pray. Nobody shoved religion down anyone’s throat.

For the 4 rogue anecdotes you cite I can give you 400 that corroborate mine. Of course institutions have their flaws. Sure we need to handle the non-veg lunch issue better. But don’t for a moment insinuate that PSBB corners kids from different backgrounds. Never. Ever. Happened.
