[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for the responses. Somerset's reputation is exactly what makes it a tough choice. But, the neighborhood is very wealthy, so this isn't the place to look for diversity. Racial or socio-economic. Some of the private schools we are most attracted to have quite a racially diverse student body. Not so much socio-economic, of course. We went on tours at GDS and Sidwell and were struck by the tremendous racial diversity. It seems better to have that than a far more homogeneous wealthy population. The second reason we think about it. We have friends with kids in private schools. The youngsters have almost daily PE, music and art several times per week, drama. Our kids at Somerset are not getting this experience. [/quote]
