[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always laugh at the private school parents who say they don’t put their kids in schools like Sidwell for college admissions purposes. We all know that is total bullshit. They are obsessed with prestige. Of course they have college in mind. Why can’t we just be honest on this forum? It’s anonymous. [/quote] We are about to be Sidwell parents for high school and of course college admissions is one of the reasons we chose it. No expectation that kid is going to an ivy, but great college counselling and preparation is definitely a draw. But college is certainly not the only reason we picked it - we were impressed with the quality of the education, the curriculum, choice of classes, teaching, facilities and the very nice and normal people we met through the process. We are not obsessed with prestige either, but I imagine you will not believe that or anything I’ve said here![/quote]
