[quote=Anonymous]If you're getting Bs in middle school then Sidwell isn't the right fit for you. it's a miserable place for kids who don't want to work really hard in high school. It's not just prestigious name--it's a sweatshop. How do parents not understand this? middle school should be a no -brainer, cake walk for a kid who is a good fit for Sidwell high school. they counsel out their own B students They're not looking to replace them with other B students in 9th grade. I have a kid there and another who is in 8th elsewhere . kid #2 is just as bright and had As but doesn't thrive on work, work, work. not a good fit (at all) for this kid. we are applying elsewhere.
