[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m surprised this has not come up yet, but several of the schools are posting college placement results on social media. My sophomore DC showed me some of the posts and, while I know this will generate a whole lot of ire here, I’ll admit I was impressed by GDS’ placements. The quantity, caliber, and range was notable. Burke and St. Andrew’s also had much stronger placement than I recall from prior years. The placement landscape is clearly changing.

This is a complete troll post. GDS has not posted college placements on Twitter or Facebook or anywhere else. While students will post their destinations on their own social media, the school actively discourages it. Every student is different and where they go to college is not a very good measure of the education provided by their high school. My child's reach may be your child's safety. Your child may prioritize playing on a D3 lacrosse team and mine might dream of landing on an aircraft carrier. And just because 40 students in the senior class got into the Ivies doesn't boost your 8th grader's chances. [/quote]
