[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The nickname “Sadwell No Friends” has been around forever.  All the private schools have a name.  All the kids at the schools know them.  It’s just a joke.  Don’t take it so seriously. [/quote]

But this is actually true for some kids and Sidwell does not notice or care one bit about those kids.[/quote]

This “is actually true for some kids” at every school. Students struggle with depression, and other mental health issues, at every school. Sidwell is not an exception to that rule, nor is it an outlier. What’s your point? [/quote]

The point would be that Sidwell does not have a particularly warm approach from teachers or admin. There is very little expectation for mentoring. And, yes, it does occur among those who are outgoing and of course there are some teachers that are warm. Every school we know of has a higher bar for the student advisory role and generally employs more kindness into the ethos of the school from the top down. [/quote]
