[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a quirky 10 year old DD and exploring schools to apply to for either 5th or 6th. I am going to open houses and also talking to friends with kids at target schools. My friends suggest that some schools have a reputation for being better for quirky girls. Is this really a thing? Like some school are better for athletic kids, or kids who are artistic, or whatever? Don’t most of these schools have a mix of kids? I guess I am wondering if there really is a different (in terms of personality or interests) pool of kids who go to Sidwell vs. GDS vs. Holton? (Just examples) FWIW, when I say quirky, to me it means my DD has strong interests in some fairly narrow areas - for example, [b]she loves history, her sport is a martial art, and she sews and reads for fun. She also plays video games[/b], etc., - are there really schools which are a better fit for “girls like her”? [/quote] Every school has many girls like this. You sound paranoid. [/quote]
