[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But PP's point was about facilities and it is not really tenable to say that GDS has better infrastructure than Maret, at least at present, given the cafeteria.  The other point, that GDS has more prestige, is just laughable, but perhaps backlash from dealing with the DC government will change that. Seriously doubt it though.[/quote]

The point wasn't which school has better infrastructure/facilities. It's how each school deal with its facilities limitations. GDS spends considerable money building better facilities. Maret steals from DCPS kids.[/quote]

No it was not.  It was a passing potshots about facilities and prestige and was wrong on both counts.[/quote]
That’s your opinion.  When I hear people refer to a big 3, I most commonly hear GDS included among with Sidwell and the Cathedral Schools.  GDS was also one of the first integrated private schools in this area and has socially progressive values and  wouldn’t screw over public school kids the way Maret has been doing for a decade.

No none ever used Big 3 outside of the board.  And even on this board, GDS as part of the term is up for debate.  But Maret remains more difficult to get in to than GDS.  That's just the way it is - draw your own conclusions.[/quote]

My conclusion is that Maret is hard to get into because it is a very small school.
