[quote=Anonymous]Repeat that it depends on the grade. Understand that schools that have a high percentage of parents who are lawyers, lobbyists, and real estate agents are populated by people who see others through the lens of money and status. Avoid Sidwell, GDS, NCS, STA, Potomac, Maret, and Holton. That said, these are some of the most rigorous and prestigious schools in the area. We have children at some of these schools and have accepted that while the schools are academically good for our kids, they are not where we’re going to find many of our peeps. There are some, just not many. We keep our kids grounded through activities and friendship networks outside of school. As parents we also have strong friendships that aren’t school-based. If you’re at one of the aforementioned schools and looking to make good new friends, you may be disappointed unless you have social clout and wealth. [/quote]
