[quote=Anonymous]There is more to a rigorous education than producing test takers and science winners. If you want a school that emphasizes thinking and writing about social issues, in addition to rigorous classes, and develops the whole student, I would pick Sidwell. Before everyone attacks me as elitist, we are middle class educators with kids who used to be in top notch public school programs. Sidwell has helped our kids become self confident thinkers and writers. They also have a deep understanding of mathematical and scientific principles. The public schools they attended were excellent, put there were weaknesses in each. I prefer their curriculum to AP courses which seem somewhat superficial and test-oriented to me.[/quote]
