[quote=Anonymous]Lowell and Sheridan are both incredible schools. The PP stated that Lowell is a "a lot" more diverse, but Sheridan is also quite diverse. Lowell has a sprawling facility which is great, but no lunch program which sucks. Sheridan using the same vendor for lunch that Sidwell uses, so their food is amazing. Sheridan also has a mountain campus that the kids go to a few times a year and thats all included in your tuition. They both are progressive schools and I would rank the quality of the education and culture of the schools to be similar! Sheridan also heavily focuses on letting kids be kids, allowing them to take risks, creating a really safe environment along with excellent academics.  I think it boils down to which one you just *feel* like is a better fit for the child and the family.  Both are great! GDS is not really a good school to compare to Lowell and Sheridan since its PK-12 as opposed to ending at 8th grade. I think a lot of DC parents way of thinking is that if they can get their kid into a PK-12 school that it alleviates the burden of the unpleasant application process having to occur more than once! I don't think a parent looking at GDS, Maret and Sidwell for example is the same parent looking at Sheridan, Lowell and Norwood. [/quote]
