[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]GDS students are admitted at a wider number of schools, generally more prestigious. Maret students tend to go to SLACs, but lower percentage than GDS to HSLACs.

GDS' campus will be much nicer than Maret once GDS completes move.

Maret is hard to get into because it's small, not because it is academically stronger.

Social life can be more difficult @ Maret, because of fewer students. If there's bullying or bad dynamics, fewer options and your child can't get much distance.

Money and donations matter more at Maret. School is more reliant on a smaller # of donor families. More special treatment of larger donor families and their kids.

Would choose GDS over Maret.

Same here! I was wondering when the anti GdS poster would show up and they did not disappoint.

Nice try. If you want to be in a self righteous insufferable community where everything every child does is "perfect", go to GDS. [/quote]

Wow, I was just thinking this thread was an amazing breath of fresh air with no anti-GDS vitriol but I guess that was never going to last. OP, ignore this person. My kids are both at GDS and they are far from perfect. In fact today they are total nightmares.  [/quote][/quote]

What? The dance party video didn’t pep them up? Still waiting for something academic to start.[/quote]

It's been 4 days. Even in a normal year, the first 4 days of school are not particularly rigorous. [/quote]
