[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]15 pages about whether Sidwell is really Sadwell?!? I don’t think there’s a DC area school (public or private) that stirs up more people than Sidwell. SOME of y’all really love to hate this school.

Congratulations, Sidwell! There's no such thing as bad publicity. [/quote]

I think the dislike comes from them thinking they are more relevant than they may be?

Two friends sons turned down Sidwell this past year for another school and their friends at Sidwell gave them such a hard time about it and could not believe they would choose another school. [/quote]

Fifteen pages about a nonsense topic is probably one of the best (unintentional) examples of Sidwell’s relevance. This isn’t fifteen pages about a Sidwell scandal involving sex, drugs, or murder (Madeira, anyone?). It’s about Sidwell vs. Sadwell. C’mon! [/quote]

The Madeira thing was a hundred years ago. [/quote]

Just as murder has no statute of limitations, neither does the discussion of the Madeira Murder. [/quote]

A 14-year-old girl was murdered. Also, a former head of school murdered her ex-lover.[/quote]

A 14-year old Madeira student was murdered on campus approximately 50 years ago. The murderer/pedophile had previously sexually assaulted two other Madeira students.

“What I learned last week was that Gilreath had been charged with eight counts of sexual assault, including on not one but two girls from Madeira. In 1972, he'd grabbed another 14-year-old girl, held her prisoner on a rock on the Potomac River, molested her, then let her go…Gilreath's other 14-year-old victim, who was snatched outside the chapel at Madeira, repeatedly called the psychiatric hospital to check he was still incarcerated. Five weeks before he murdered my sister, the former victim was told by a probation officer of Gilreath's release. Horrified, she immediately told her parents and the headmistress of Madeira, Barbara Keyser. Both dismissed her as being hysterical.”
