I am always amazed by the parents who straddle the Orchard / Ridge district and their decision to send their children to Ridge. All based on perception of social status. Which is good for Orchard. Because it means smaller class sizes. On top of which, Orchard has consistently outperformed Ridge. Here's to the idiocy of social climbers and a well kept secret.
