Looking at the Mesivta. What type of boys and families? Do they wear white shirts? How many night seders? Dorming? If you know about the beis midrash comment too.

Great school, but if those are the questions you have, it's very possibly not the right school.

What’s the problem with the questions? Those are the things that the school doesn’t talk about. I can hear from them about curriculum and can speak with the rebbeim. Is there something we are missing? We have asked several people IRL.

Nothing wrong with those questions at all. I may have interpreted it wrong, but those are questions more in line with a yeshiva more to the right of YGW. People who are looking at places like YGW tend to be more concerned with the level of secular studies.

I went to girl version of that high school many years ago. The boys didn't only wear b&w. I think they had 2 or 3 night seders.
But yeah I agree your questions seem like you want something more to the right.
This is a great school and probably has a good mix of guys... but overall you'll click with the kind of friends you click with.

Agree. It is more of a community school. Most parents who send to the school would not care to know the answer to your question, meaning the fact that you are asking means you are more to the right than the typical boy there.

But to answer your questions, there are many who wear black and white and many who don't. It's a real mix. There is a small dorm.
