[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kids who rise to the top in public are the crème de la crème for 9th grade admissions. Watch out K-8 schools! [/quote] Absolutely not the case at Sidwell for 9th. The entering 9th grade class during my kids’ years there have been largely comprised of grads from the best k-8s (but not all k-8s), then OOS kids from the Bay area or NY/NJ. THEN MoCo and far behind is DCPS. IME the kids coming from MoCo transfer in at earlier points like fourth and sixth. [/quote] Why would kids from the Bay Area and NY/NJ consistently be a part of Sidwell’s entering 9th grade? After an election year and an administration change that would be expected, but it is not the norm every year.[/quote]
