[quote=Anonymous]I think both schools are great but they do have a different vibe as a previous poster said. My son has really enjoyed Sidwell and didn't like GDS after visiting. But he has friends that love GDS. Personally, I like the more traditional academic environment but I can also understand the appeal of GDS. One thing I'll add is Sidwell has an open campus for lunch but they also have the option to eat at the cafeteria. I don't imagine that this is the deciding factor for many families, especially because there are real differences between the schools, but we think it's a nice middle ground between GDS (no cafeteria) and Maret (no open campus for lunch). We give my son monthly budget, which amounts to about 1 lunch out a week, and he can choose when to go out with his friends and when to eat in the cafeteria.[/quote]
