[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you're right. Sidwell gets more applications than any school in the DC metropolitan area and also has the lowest acceptance rate. Granted, Sidwell has a great reputation, but I think all of these threads help create a sort of mystique about the school. And that probably causes even more people to apply for their DCs.[/quote] Do you know for a fact that Sidwell has both the highest number of applicants AND the lowest acceptance rate? Where was that published. As for our kids, I think Sidwell has a very good reputation of college placement and have a diverse student body. But I want a meaningful experience for my kids outside the classroom, and that's where Sidwell falters in particular. Reading about the poem slamming the females at the school and the hiring of the pedophile doesn't exactly help matters, at least for us.[/quote]
