[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sidwell. [donning flame-retardant suit ....] -- love, not a Sidwell parent or grad, just a Washingtonian who has lived here a long time and has noticed the exact thing OP is discussing.[/quote] Oh my gosh, no. The Sidwell kids I know, including DD's BFF, are NOT poised. What do you mean, anyway, OP? Do you mean confidence? Do you mean being articulate? Polite to your elders? I assume you don't mean confidence that comes from knowing which fork to use, and schools don't teach this anyway. Do you mean the sort of confidence you get from knowing you went to an elite private school? In the latter case it's nothing the school does, it's the fact of the school's existence.... [/quote]
