Sounds like the new MS director is a current teacher? If so, what grade? Also, can you explain a little more about the "Hogwarts House" model they set up? I can't remember if its inclusive of all grades including lower school of it was just a MS/US thing.
I understand some kids are more geographically dispersed than others, have you found that those kids living beyond the immediately DC, close to DC/MD area are less involved socially in terms of afterschool or weekend friend activities? As DC is coming from another private in VA, they are leaving a big friendship base and are nervous about this happening since we do not live in the city.
Finally, beyond the school-sponsored family reception, are there any other opportunities for the kids to meet prior to the beginning of school? TIA!
You should ask the admissions office to talk to a current parent in the grade. You will get better information than on this board.
