[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not at all. Sidwell is great but to suggest other schools are inferior because of brushes with scandal and ignore Sidwell's own issues is ridiculous.[/quote] Agreed. In the recent past Sidwell fired 2 teachers for having inappropriate relationships with students, a student who was accused of raping another student, and although I don't know if it's a legitimate claim, there's still a lawsuit out there claiming that a student was discriminated against because she was black. And the school hired Rick Singer to testify in this case on their behalf. Additionally, there are 3 former Sidwell families that used Rick Singer to help their kids get into college. Their cases went to a grand jury hearing this summer, but charges have not yet been filed. So yes, they too have had their own issues. [/quote]
