[quote=Anonymous]OP, the academic environment is somewhat more fast-paced at Sidwell than Landon because there is overall a greater spread of student abilities at Landon than Sidwell. (Although certainly Sidwell students are not monolithically genius in their ability levels!) There is also more nightly homework at Sidwell so you might factor that in as well. Not sure what you mean by "is there a difference in the possibility and way to achieve academic excellence" at these schools. Anecdotally it may be harder for your son to get top grades at Sidwell vs. Landon (given the pool), but if he is a star I'm sure he will twinkle brightly at either place -- which is why so many responses you are getting focus on cultural factors.
