When Sidwell only received six applications for each K slot.

When there were only 75 children on the GDS K waitilist.

When you went to Sheridan if your child's strenght was not necessarily academic.

In the 70's some parents took their kids to Sidwell b/c they were having academic difficulties in the public schools.

I know several people who attended Sheridan "back in the day" and they were both academically gifted and now are very successful in their fields.
