[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't see this anywhere in this thread but GDS has a high school teacher: student ratio of 8:1 and Sidwell 16:1, according to their websites. Isn't this a big difference between the schools?[/quote] The published ratios can be a little misleading depending on how a school calculates. Some add up all possible teachers (including part time, coaches, and admin who teach a single class), which can skew the ratio somewhat unrealistically. The better questions for each school is what is the average class size, and what is the largest class size (and maybe, which classes tend to hit that cap, if that’s important to you). [/quote]
