[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]20% of children nationally have learning differences.  20% of students at the top 3 have learning differences.  Don't assume that your child can't be accommodated, because if s/he is bright and curious, s/he will do just fine in any school.  [/quote]

Selective admissions processes and subsequent counseling out mean the students at the Big 3 do not mirror the general population. That's why people pay the big $. [/quote]

+100 No way 20% of the kids at the Cathedral schools or Sidwell have a learning difference.[/quote]

Agree - counseled out by upper school seems to be the norm[/quote]

Totally agree.  Everyone I know who lasts through a Big 3 seems very organized, focused, motivated, and without learning issues.[/quote]

How can anybody feel good about a school that kicks kids out for getting less than A- average and is a little unorganized? My DC is at one of these schools and fits the same profile as OP's and though he has not been counceled (kicked) out, we live in fear of it all the time, which makes me absolutely hate the school and wish that we hadn't decided to send our stellar DD there next year. I don't think the school deserves either one of them.[/quote]
