[quote=Anonymous]The question is, though, how does the school determine who is a "bad fit"? Even if you assume the school's motives are benevolent, I still wonder why some kids were counselled out and other kids who were in the same boat academically were allowed to stay? In some cases, yes, the kids who were counselled out also had some social/behavioral issues, but not always. In some cases, yes, the kids who were counselled out had PITA parents, but not always. Sidwell faculty members can be very judgmental about kids at times, and gossipy, and I have always wondered whether that was really what was involved in some of the counselling out decisions, more than concern for a child's well-being.
