I have seen exactly the same behavior at Sidwell. I saw a group of boys in their uniform over the summer trying to strangle a small puppy, while their parents were encouraging them on the sidelines. It was horrible.
I'm glad this thread is bringing out this information. |

ha ha sidwell and their recognizable uniforms.
more importantly the OP is a poser as not just b/c NCS only wears uniforms in 4th-6th and it was the weekend, but moreover the whole story is far fetched. She claims to know what was happening on the other line. Also, how long was she standing their eavesdropping? Don't be fooled by some spiteful mother who feels the need to bash a school. Really pathetic actually. |
Hilarious, spot on satire. Really well done! |
No, see, those are Landon boys whose parents enrolled them in Sidwell summer school and then told them to wear the free t-shirt whenever they strangled puppies. But also to remember to stick to small puppies so as not to blow their cover. Because everyone knows that real Sidwell students lack the strength, courage, training, and teamwork necessary to strangle a large puppy. |
| sigh - op here - I never said it was in the mall - this happened at Sullivan's toy store in DC, which is a couple of blocks from the school. It was the same weekend as the blessing of the animals service, I think, which might explain why the girls were in uniform on the weekend. We've seen students from NCS in the neighborhood at local restaurants - like Cafe Deluxe - often. We pay attention because, although our daughter is now too young for NCS, we've heard good things about it and would want to consider looking into it later on. And the girls put the phone on speaker. Trying to discredit what I've written doesn't address girls bullying each other, or students displaying terrible behavior while they're in their uniforms. |
| I've heard Sullivans will give you a discount on action figures if you bring in a dead puppy. That's why Sidwell kids are known for having large action figure collections. |
| Oh Jeff can't you put in a "like" button along with your "report" button so we can recognize some of these witty posts (eg above)? |
| students who were at blessing of the animals would not be in uniform since it is not a school related event. |
| Maybe they wanted to get their puppies blessed? |
| Before the Landon boys wearing Sidwell shirts killed them... |
The Blessing of the Animals is done at the LOWER SCHOOL during the week not on the weekend. |
| It's funny bc I saw the exact same thing ...at some ritzy toy store where all the cool 6th graders hang out ...except the kids were from PUBLIC SCHOOL!!!! |

There is another Blessing of the Animals Service and it does take place on the weekend. In fact, it took place the weekend before the OP posted which lends some credibility to her claim.
That said, you have no way of knowing whether this entire episode was done in jest and you are completely overreacting. Please describe the uniforms. |
| If they were wearing uniforms on a weekend, it wasn't NCS. |
You are obviously not the original poster and therefore cannot answer the question. |
