[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there any such thing as a Quaker these days? I've never met one. Maybe I am being cynical, but Sidwell can be Quaker without being a very religious environment. My son attends an Episcopal school where the only use of the chapel is school convocations, which are not religious events. Prep I'd think is a Jesuit community based on what I have observed. As a non-Catholic I would be concerned about fitting in for both my kid and for us as a family. We had a son play youth lacrosse for Club Blue and definitely felt the families and kids were very friendly and nice, but also felt very outside their group. I had only positive impressions of the GP families we met, but I also felt in the end that immersing our son at GP as a non-Jesuit would be a poor fit. GP seems very much a religious oriented school. [/quote] There seem to be a lot of professed "Quakers" whose surnames end in -stein and -berg when applications for Sidwell admissions roll in![/quote]
