[quote=Anonymous]gds lower school's location, start time and lack of lunch were a deterrent for us. Sidwell's lower school location was also a deterrent. Logistics would have been too complicated. Likely would have applied to both if they were located with their upper schools. I realize many are willing to make those sacrifices, but many aren't. Point is that the moves will increase the number of applicants to both. This is inevitably going to hurt k-8s. People will want k-12, cheaper privates or even publics. An increasingly expensive k-8 becomes a tough sell. In most cases, the facilities won't be able to compete with k-12. And in all cases, the k-12 (which may indeed be an inferior model) will remain desirable because of the guarantee of a top high school. [/quote]
