[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sidwell never leads in this type if thing. They will follow if others start doing it. But, i will bet that the NE boarding schools will go back to grades when their kids college admissions success decreases. You need some objective criteria to measure applicants. There are too many great students everywhere.[/quote] Why would their college admissions decrease? These are the feeder schools for the Ivies. Colleges will adjust. It’s all a game. Other private schools will copy them and then public schools will, and it won’t affect the elite kids, but it will be detrimental to the middle class and lower class schools. Just like taking away phonics didn’t hurt kids in wealthy schools but has been detrimental to almost everyone else. [/quote]
