[quote=Anonymous]Again, the original topic was the odds of getting into Sidwell. However, this conversation has devolved into a discussion of Sidwell's Quaker values. I am a Sidwell parent and a Quaker. The previous poster who estimated that there are 1-2 Quaker students per grade is probably correct. In my DD's grade, there are definitely two active Quaker families, and there could be more. My experience as a Quaker and a Sidwell parent is that the school consistently has a tension around how closely it is ascribing to Quaker values. I expect that this is the same for other private schools affiliated with religions. And, like everywhere, there are non-Quaker families who live their lives commensurate with Quaker values, and other families who are neutral about Sidwell's Quakerism. [/quote]
