[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dear OP I had a DC start in 9th at Sidwell and found it to be hyper-competitive. Lots of kids there were very stressed. The grading is very hard. Parents justify staying because of the name and they say college will be easy. I guess I was looking for high school and not college. We opted out. [/quote] Very true -- from a parent whose kids didn't opt out, but who still wonders if it wouldn't have been the better choice to do so. [/quote]
