[quote=Anonymous]Glad to hear disciplinary issues are rare, but sorry to hear some parents have not been satisfied with how they have been handled when they arose.  Our youngest graduated four years ago and we really didn’t see any serious discipline problems while they attended or hear complaints about how they were handled.

The discussion above is a bit confusing to me.  Like almost all privates, there always was an element of the school that was a bit flashier with money (referred to above re Potomac but actually a mixture of DC and Md) but that always seemed like a minority of the classes to me and our kids had little interaction with them outside of school.  Our kids had lots of friends - From DC to Darnstown (including Potomac, Bethesda and Silver Spring) and they were and are great kids.  My sense of the school administration and faculty is that it definitely leans left, so when a poster earlier implied the school fell short on diversity of thought I would have assumed the poster was complaining that SAWS wasn’t as welcoming of views from the right or at least that were not progressive, but then when the same poster tied the complaint to a Potomac privileged culture it seemed s/he was coming from the left, not the right. So I’m not sure I understand.
