[quote=Anonymous]I think Sandy Spring Friends School may be closer to what you experienced in your past contacts with Quakerism. I do see Quaker influences at Sidwell in terms of service (requirements for students and many opportunities to give to the broader community) and also in decision making of administration (in terms of consensus mode). But to be honest (not in a negative way) I don't see the service component being any different than our other child's school in terms out outcomes (also no different than other area high schools our child's peers attend.). It's also not necessarily a plus that administration operates in full consensus mode. I am sure there will be many who want to bash whether Sidwell is truly Quaker. I think the US is intense but it's a good match for our child. [/quote]
