[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m also curious. The kids have a rep for being kind and bright. The culture looks welcoming. What makes this school a good fit for a certain kid?

Would love to hear from a current family. [/quote]

I'm the PP--the kids are lovely. My DH and I joke that the school has a no a**hole policy both for the kids and the families. Another school policy is the kids are assigned a lunch table with other kids from all the other grades and two faculty members. Those tables rotate every 3 weeks or so with the idea being you get to know almost everyone at the school. That's the kind of place it is.
I think SAS is good for a kid who is interested in academics but also interested in getting involved and trying new things. Participating in the community, being present. And when you all live together you have to learn to get along and be mindful of the way other people live. Plus it's a small place so there are opportunities to try a new sport or new activity. My kid picked up a new instrument this year--why not? The school encourages involvement.[/quote]
