[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you want to send your child to NCS or Sidwell, don’t assume she will be able to get in at middle school after doing French immersion. It sounds like you’re ignorant, not arrogant but both schools have extremely competitive admissions at 6th and 7th. WIS and Rochambeau are not considered to be academically strong schools. Your daughter will be competing with kids from MoCo magnets, NPS, St. Patrick’s, and schools like Sheridan and Norwood. All these schools are more competitive for entry to NCS and Sidwell than WIS or Rochambeau. The best chance of entry to NCS is sending your daughter to Beauvoir PK then applying at 4th bc of the special status given Beauvoir applicants. The best chance of entry to Sidwell is in PK. [/quote] Oh please. WiS is MORE rigorous than whatever you call top 3 or top 5 or whatever dc-centric ranking you have in mind. It is true that few kids go from WIS to those because....why would you go backwards?[/quote]
