[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To me the issue is, outside of the DMV no one has ever heard of GDS. For better or worse, Sidwell has the notoriety that comes from having Clinton and Obama kids there. You can go anywhere in the country and talk about Sidwell and people know the school. That is simply not true of GDS If I’m going to pay $45000 a year for a school, I prefer to purchase a brand name that means something [/quote] Eh, depends on which college you went to. If you went to Harvard/Yale/Princeton or Amherst/Swarthmore/Williams, you knew about Georgetown Day. Coming from CA, I went to one of the competitive SLACs and definitely knew of the DC prep school scene and all the schools that inhabited it. See the thread on Pomona in the College forum--if you haven't heard of Pomona, that says more about you than about the school.[/quote] Yes! Lived in Bay Area and Pomona grads were the most interesting. Stanford? Meh[/quote]
