[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a neighbor whose older child recently graduated GDS and whose younger child joined in ninth grade. They have been complaining in a similar manner to PPs here for years and years. Yet they sent their second child and were *very* happy to tell everyone when they were admitted. [b]How can anyone take the complaining seriously? [/b] [/quote] I'm not the PP - it's not as simple as you suggest. In the end, no school is perfect. And unfortunately at schools like GDS and Sidwell - there is no drive for the administration to improve or to even consider that there are areas in which the school can improve. All parents are painted with the brush of being over the top. Certainly these parents exist...but so do "areas for improvement". Meanwhile, families (especially those with several children) are already invested younger siblings may not have a shot at other schools and it could also be that families opt to continue with the devil they know.
