[quote=Anonymous]The responses above are very helpful. As another new parent we are also nervous but excited about 9th grade at Sidwell next year. This forum seems to have a pattern though- in Sidwell vs XYZ school, Sidwell will be described as a pressure cooker sucking the joy out of people. But then if you read XYZ school vs ABC school perceived as lower ranking, then XYZ school becomes a pressure cooker sucking joy out of people. Whether these are calculated attempts to move waitlists or discourage applicants, who knows? Or maybe just people in the other schools trying to feel better about their choices? [/quote]
