[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a current parent, who has never had a conversation with the current head of school, I am super curious about the Tom Farquhar story. Shocking to hear about a head of school threatening a family. I have heard the current head speak once; I don’t even now his name. Having had kids at other schools, I have never seen a more absent head of school than at Sidwell.[/quote]

Wait a second.  First, the remarks attribute to the former head of school come from the petition, which is prepared by the family’s lawyer to present everything in a light most favorable to them.  We haven’t seen the schhol’s Response but we do know that the family is 0-2 so far in the courts.  But even if the attributed remark is true, where do you go from the HoS venting frustration to “threatening” the family?!  That’s an irresponsible statement.

The whole law suit is an abuse of the process.  Too bad for them that “under-represented entitled whiny jerk” is not a special hook in the college application process. [/quote]
