Your kids will work much harder at Sidwell and learn more but they'll get into a better college from Walls. (But does high school have to be this challenging? That is the question.) The school spirit part of high school may be better at Sidwell.

Why do you think a student will get into a better college from Walls? Do you have data that indicates students from these two schools, with similar stats, do better coming from Walls? Where’s the proof?

I'm not the PP you are referring to but I agree with their assessment re college admissions.

Walls is certainly NOT doing better than Sidwell in college admissions this year. Check out the huge difference between the two on Instagram.

Well, I should hope SFS is at least a bit better considering it costs over $200,000 dollars to attend for HS.
