[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But what kind of parents are they looking for as part of interview or just confirming the assessment of the child during child’s interview?[/quote]

You sound very naive unless you are being facetious. They want to know your pedigree and bank account and whether you will be a PIA.[/quote]

This....but maybe to add another angle....they are building a community and parents are part of that community. [/quote]

+1 its vetting for the crazies not for the deep pockets. I know they have their ways of figuring potential donors that does not requre interviewing. The interviewer learned very little about us if they were concerned with what we were wearing or any thing useless and superficial like that. The interview was all about our DC and our expectations for their education, and then how we see Sidwell helping fulfull those expectations. They are looking for normal, involved, yet well balanced community members to add, and no social climbers or curriculum jockeys.[/quote]
