[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]A few years ago my son had exactly the same choice. We left it up to him and (though I secretly preferred STA), he chose Sidwell. This post highlights exactly what I feel like he missed out on. He has had great teachers at Sidwell but no one seemed personally invested in him or his success. [b]College counseling is a joke [/b]and the HOS showed his lack of leadership during the pandemic.[/quote] Granted, this is just your opinion, but it's a dated trope that isn't backed by current facts. We've been very pleased with the current lineup of individuals in the CC office and they are very, very responsive. (It's worth noting that we're not a family who thinks it's a sound strategy to apply only to the Ivies and Stanford and call it a day).[/quote] +1. CCO has improved immensely at Sidwell over the last 2 years. All of the current counselors are outstanding - I would hold up the Sidwell group against the CCO at any area school.[/quote]
