[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had a terrible experience in the lower school and pulled our kids and have never looked back. It seems it is a better place in the Upper school so that's good. But the administrators specifically and parents set the snobby exclusionary tone at the lower school and it filters down to the kids sadly. They learn to intentionally exclude and be unkind at an astonishingly young age. I would avoid at all costs.[/quote]

🙁 If you don’t mind sharing, which school ended up working out? It can be hard to know before enrolling. The SSSAS admissions experience was a well-oiled marketing machine that did sound too good to be true. We looked at only a few more but we saw red flags there during the admissions process.[/quote]

I wish I could say but I would probably get IDed. I’m sure the SSSAS admin monitors here. I’ll just say we moved to another private in NoVA and are much happier in a very warm and welcome community. I wish we hadn’t gone through the experience but everything is ok now. I wish I had seen the red flags myself![/quote]
DP. If you’re not at SSSAS anymore, why does it matter if they recognize you here? Why gatekeep the good school that you moved to?[/quote]
