[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On famous?  It's Dematha for sure.

I'm betting that President Obama, huge basketball fan that he is,  would agree. [/quote]

Agreed. The Sidwell boosters seem to be extremely closed to any disconfirming data, logic or common sense. This entire thread is exhausting because they just keep saying Sidwell is the most famous but they have nothing objective to back that up with. It’s all about their elitist feelings about which school they think is “better.” And a lot of the comments tearing down Dematha sound racist. [/quote]

The OP’s question aside, you and I both know that Dematha is not an academically rigorous school. That’s not racist, that’s reality. There are predominantly Black schools that are academically rigorous. Dematha isn’t one of them. [/quote]

The question is which school is most famous, so you and the Sidwell boosters are off topic and yes lots of the comments about Dematha have been racist. You have to give credit where credit is due and this erasure of a school’s accolades because it’s located in a black county and services more minority and lower income families is racist. We can talk about Sidwell on one of the which school has the best academics posts (still wouldn’t be number one though) but on this topic Dematha is the clear winner and we shouldn’t be trying to take that away from them.[/quote]
