[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hear there is a bidding war. It is Between BIM, which has outgrown its Tysons office building and the peripatetic Feynman school. 
(:-)[/quote]

What is BIM? And is Feynman an elementary too? It is a pretty spacious property - we drove by the other day, and I wondered what Sidwell is planning for it. Sounds like the move is 28/29?  Why'd they sit on [b]Washington Home for so long[/b]? It's almost a decade, wow.[/quote]

Sidwell has been using the Washington Home building for years.  It was very helpful to spread out kids/classes during COVID. Many staff have offices in that building. They hold events there. Admissions used it this year for in-person student sessions. It's not just "sitting".[/quote]

OMG. This is a crazy pants post.  It's been a big costly white elephant for a decade already. There was no real need for any of that space over the past decade. I just look at it and think of how much of my tuition money has gone into paying the interest and maintenance for that building,  rather than into my kids' education.  [b]All to try to keep up with GDS,[/b]  I guess. 
I'm not betting on a  2026 opening either btw.[/quote]

Sidwell trying to keep up with GDS?!? Why would a lion try to keep up with a sheep?

Thanks for the laugh! 😂 [/quote]
