What did you contact ADs about, and how did they respond? I was always wary of seeming needy or presumptuous (seems ridiculous in retrospect!).

Did your extra efforts for Maret and Beauvoir pay off?

When you say you attended more than one open house, what do you mean exactly? Are the open houses all different from one another?

I'm assuming no offer at Sidwell, then?

Depending on the day different teachers or faculty may have presented information or parents with various views of the school may have been available. As a result you are able to get many perspectives of the school. In my opinion this shows you are interested in learning more about the school that can assist with determining whether the school is the right fit for your DC and family.

Regarding PP admissions question . . .
No we did not get an offer at Sidwell.

That's too bad. I was hoping you were freeing up a spot there.
