[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are new to the GDS community and came from a school with a stunning campus by comparison.

GDS has been perfect for my ds.  He likes eating packed lunches and is super engaged academically.  We would not choose some of the other schools typically discussed here because we saw too much focus on superficial values masking unbridled competition.  This thread tends to support our analysis.

Perhaps those worried about GDS's campus should spend time worrying about [b]truly dangerous[/b] or substandard schools plaguing our communities beyond NW DC.  Just saying.[/quote]

Truly dangerous?

Not aware of any schools in the DC metropolitan area that have metal detectors.

Some of us would consider the lack of hygiene inherent in kids eating in their schoolrooms as something more than a superficial value.  It's great that your child is very happy at GDS and it's working out for your family, but don't be so defensive that others make different choices.  Would hazard to suggest that you reflect on the thought that many, many kids who do not attend GDS and manage to thrive beyond the confines of NW DC are also super-engaged academically and have lunchrooms.  It's typical to have both.[/quote]
