Ego?  Sidwell has middle school sports including 2 football teams.   The numbers participating in soccer and xcountry do not account for what these kids are actually doing at a school with an afterschool PE requirement.    Playing frisbee on the lawn and sashaying down to McDonalds or wandering over to someone's house?

Look up schools at your leisure.  Sidwell has 100 more in HS than Potomac.  2 coed schools about 1o minutes drive time each for somebody living in Palisades.[/quote]

You really have no idea what these kids are doing for their PE requirements. If you did you would understand that football isn't the only sport at Sidwell. Throughout the year kids are playing on many different teams. Stop basing your opinions on the fact that one team is struggling. As for the PE requirement, it's not limited to after school. There are a lot of options. Some of them are offered early in the morning before school starts and others are offered during the school day. Those kids you see sashaying to  Z burger have fulfilled their PE requirement at some point that day.[/quote]
