[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maret tries so hard to be Sidwell.[/quote] Maret is not trying to be anything other than itself. The challenge is it isn’t consistent as to what that is and the schools commitment to academic excellence, athletics, arts, and social responsibility all waiver from period to period. The one constant is the insular nature of the Maret community, perpetuated by the greater representation of significant affluence over top DC privates a sweet but mistaken emphasis on sibling preference. In a community as small as Maret, accepting siblings as aggressively as they do builds loyalty but harms rigor and profile. Maret is a school folks either love because they are part of the in crowd or eschew because they understand It’s limitations...[/quote]
