[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]60% POC, 1 in 4 to 1 in 5 on financial aid. What more do you want?[/quote]

About 20% are on financial aid. I personally know a few of Sidwell’s financial aid recipients (because they’re open about it). They are all well educated professionals (e.g., combinations of two-parent feds, teachers, professors, journalists, etc). By US standards, these are solidly middle class and upper middle class families.

Sidwell is a great school, but there isn’t much economic diversity. It’s a school for the uber wealthy, regular wealthy and middle/upper middle class. There are very few, if any, impoverished students at Sidwell. [/quote]

I do think that is a drawback of Sidwell and alike schools.  Lacking true social economical diversity. It has a profound influence on one's life. [/quote]

There is economic diversity at places like sidwell...the scale is just a lot broader from the very poor to the exceedingly rich, with most falling under the two incomes in white collar band.[/quote]

Oh my goodness, no. The families don’t want that.[/quote]
