[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]As a parent of a rising 9th grader, I would be devastated if she doesn't get her first choice in the college admission process. She is smart enough to ALWAYS get her first choice so it won't be a stretch for her advisor. I am glad the school made the change now. They still have three years to make sure all the money we invested will send her on the way to her dreams.  [/b][/quote]

^ You're being facetious, right?  (Sometimes it's hard to tell on the internet :D ).[/quote]

You know what's funny?  As a Sidwell parent with one grad and one child still in the US, I can no longer tell if this is a troll or not.  This actually sounds like conversations I've had with SFS parents.  [/quote]

Which is why we declined both Sidwell and GDS this year...while we certainly met many families who seemed pleasant we also met too many who sounded just like the above. [b]We opted for a different school where the families seemed more consistently relaxed and grounded.[/b] [/quote]

That's funny, because such a school doesn't exist in the DC area around college admissions time. Get back to us junior year, when people at your Shangri-La school start freaking out when they find out their kids' best college options are Towson State and University of West Virginia.[/quote]
