[quote=Anonymous]I have first hand experience with both GDS and Sidwell. Sidwell has better facilities - not even close. But that doesn't mean its the better school for your kid. GDS has much better arts and music. It's probably a more nurturing environment too. I view Sidwell as less nurturing because it pushes every kid to excel academically. It is not a place that tolerates - the dog ate my homework attitude. It produces excellent students who are ready for college. So does GDS. At Sidwell the teachers and the administration are in charge. At GDS, parents have more say in the way things are run. That is in part due to the roots of GDS which was founded by a group of parents. I sort of side with Sidwell on that point because sometimes GDS can seem less organized than Sidwell. [/quote]
