| I realize that when Sidwell changes its socks that is considered news, but this is pretty silly. |

Not really.
The reason is worthwhile. Plus the fact that a bunch of boosters claimed it was fake news awhile back. There are some awful parents over there. |

| Maybe she was part of the scandal. |

If not this most recent admissions scandal, then one of dozens of other schemes involving favors for children of the wealthy and powerful. |

| Definitely could see it coming. The part that floored me was LauREN coming back. |

| How convenient! The timing doesn't look shady at all. Just waiting for the DC admissions scandal to surface now. |

Is that bad? What was her track record? (We're new to the school) |

He’s not leaving because of a scandal. He’s leaving because this year’s senior class parents were so abhorrent that he was fed up with the community.
They need someone in that office who can tell parents to F off and have Bryan Garman back him/her up. But we know that won’t happen. Like most local heads, he likes feeling as if he’s part of the DC power circle. |

College advisors leave. Plural.
One is staying. Sidwell is upgrading the staff. It's two years overdue. |

The director was a nice guy, but meh.
The other one was in way over his head. Sorry to say, but true. |

While knowledgeable, she was very unapproachable. Patrick was great. Sorry to see him leave. |

The early decision cycle was not great for Sidwell and several parents were aggressively rude to the college placement office. And then one parent made an anonymous phone call to a college dean of admissions to undermine a classmate competing against his DC.
No way Sidwell pays college counselors enough to deal with the crazy parents |
