[quote=Anonymous]OP - If you are interested in both for your DC, then apply to both because they are very competitive at any grade. We looked carefully at both for 6th, and have friends on the staff at both schools. Both are excellent schools regardless of what people may say on DCUM. Maret is smaller, and at the high school level it's about 80 students per grade on average, versus about 130 at GDS. Either is minuscule compared to the big area public schools, but we thought Maret might be too small for our DC over 7 years. On the other hand, GDS is relentless about its mission and how it impacts how the school is run. If it's not a message and set of values you are willing to embrace (or at least tolerate with a smile), I would imagine it getting tiring after a time. Our DC is very happy at GDS, but I'm sure DC would have been equally happy at Maret, too.[/quote]
