[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, we just moved to Greenwich and were debating between public and private and ultimately decided to give public a try and then make the switch if we were not happy. I spoke to SO many people who told me the public schools are great. In terms of Rye Country Day vs GA, GA is very formal, stuffy and traditional. The academics are good but some of it just seemed so old school to us and not at all progressive. RCD is definitely more progressive and laid back but I have a friend with kids in upper elementary and middle school who said it’s a bit of a pressure cooker and there are many very, very wealthy families who are not so down to earth. Is there any reason you didn’t look at GCDS? I heard the best things about that school. As for the application process, I think it’s easier to get in at a natural entry year preK/K, 6 or 9, but in recent years with the big exodus to the suburbs applications are WAY up and it has become more competitive for sure.
