[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - one thing that might not be on your radar at 6th grade is the relative class size of these schools in high school.  GDS has the most, Maret has the least. I think in middle schools, the difference in size isn't quite so large.  Maret is probably still the smallest but GDS and Sidwell add a much larger group of students at 9th.  For some kids, Maret will feel very small (90ish kids), and this can be an issue if child doesn't quite find their tribe.

This is not to knock Maret - I wanted my child to choose Maret for HS - but they didn't.    [/quote]

I think this poster makes a good point. But the other side of the coin is that your kid seems like someone who might fly under the radar at a bigger school, whereas he might actually find he has the opportunity to be a bigger fish in a small pond at Maret.  It's great that he has so many choices. Given the description you provided of your son, I think I'd choose Maret, but really these are three great choices. Good luck![/quote]
