[quote=Anonymous]Re kids supposedly flunking out in MS: No, I'm not just talking about my kids; I'm also talking about their peers. And, BTW, I'm not just talking about kids who come into a private school (in our case, Sidwell) at MS or HS-level, but also those who enter in earlier years. I cannot recall anyone flunking out in HS. Most lifers and others who enter in LS and who are not a good match for the school academically are weeded out before HS. The kids who enter at MS and HS are not accepted if they're not well-suited to the school's academic demands. Therefore, kids rarely leave for academic reasons in HS. That doesn't mean, of course, that everyone is getting sailing through, but it's not a revolving door, either. [/quote]
