[quote=Anonymous]Don't you think the number of top schools has increased over the years? We bought our house from an older couple who insisted that we only send our children to NCS/Albans or Sidwell. That was the lay of the land in the 1960's, I guess. Now I think there are lots of other great schools for DC families -- Holton, GDS, Maret to name a few. I personally prefer co-ed schools, and GDS is a little too liberal for me, so our decision came down to Sidwell and Maret. We chose Sidwell, but just because it was a great fit for our family, not an arbitrary Big# designation on DCUM. Maybe people feel the need to justify their decisions (expensive ones to be sure) by promoting their own schools, but it's silly really.[/quote]
