[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are in our third year at Sheridan now. Overall a sweet school with an interesting parent community, and quite diverse. As for specific experiences, we very much liked kindergarden, were less impressed with 1st grade (but they moved a strong teacher there now, apparently realizing they had to do something), and love 2nd grade. We are also impressed with their science program. Another strong point is the fabulous school councellor. That doesn't mean that we wouldn't complain about some things - no school is perfect (and no parent) - but we're glad we have our children there. It also doesn't mean that there wouldn't be other equally good schools. When we applied we also liked GDS, for example, but didn't get in. And, yes, if your school district is Jeanny, Murch, Hirsch or Lafayette, your local public school isalso an excellent option. [/quote] After having read through some posts, a couple of additions: we also wish elementary school math was stronger, but this seems a common problem in DC private schools. And one thing I could do without is Mountain Campus - while I love the outdoors, facilities there are very basic, the kind of stuff you put up with as a teenager but not necessarily in your 40s. Most kids and many parents love it though, hence we just make a straight face and go through the ordeal :wink:[/quote]
