[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It wasn't "important," and it certainly wasn't intended for parents of 10th graders.  MYOB, OP.[/quote]

Good lord.  OP, here.  This is my oldest child and, from what I understand, the college process starts this spring for 10th graders.  Given that, I would think that parents of 12th graders would be gracious enough to share information with others in the Sidwell community.[/quote]

If you have a child in the 10th grade, I can promise you that you don't need to be worrying about the college process now.  Stop before you turn into one of those parents that we all discuss.[/quote]

Totally disagree. Lots of schools and places have meetings or presentations intended for sophomores and their families on college issues. SAT, PSAT and Act exams or prep starts now. [/quote]

You are missing the point. THIS PARTICULAR LETTER was sent out to 12th-grade families, for kids who are CURRENTLY seniors and involved THEIR INTERESTS, for THIS YEAR. There is no reason that a 10th-grade family should reasonably expect that this be "shared with the community."[/quote]

Is SFS a community or not?  Shouldn’t all US parents be aware of how the CCO operates?  It’s not as if they are asking that resources be directed to 10th graders, only that the letter be shared with the whole community. You are defensive. [/quote]
