[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]   Maret has always been open -- on average -- to a wider range of academic students than say, Sidwell.  Doesn't mean there are some students of comparable abilities at both -- and all other -- schools, just averages.  And last I checked, at almost all these schools there is a range of intensity of courses -- just as one might find at schools like, say,  St. Andrew's.  The main difference on that front is what percentage of the students take the more accelerated /deeper courses and what percentage take those that are less accelerated or go into less depth in a given subject -- very common in math, science and the pace of foreign language acquisition.  Increasingly common in social science.  Less common to have different levels in English, particularly in early years, but depends on the school.  A few schools, St. Albans comes to mind, may have fewer opportunities for differentiation in early high school years, but it is getting more common in privates. [/quote]

Maret offers remedial-level courses.[/quote]
