[quote=Anonymous]Sidwell: AD was wonderful, she had read our application in advance and referenced it. Seemed to really want to know us and DC. I thought the academic assessment was over the top. Purely academic, silent testing, but with other kids on the video as well, also silently testing. Seemed like a missed opportunity to get to know the kids. Transcripts, school assessment reports, and teacher reccs could be referenced for the academics.

GDS: virtual play date was great and DC enjoyed it. Engaging and fun. The parent interview was, blah in comparison, but not horrible. In-person visit for admitted families was informative and warm. They truly made us feel welcomed and like we were already part of the community. I’m sorry that some would choose not to apply just because they didn’t like the interview. If we had made that decision we would have missed out on what seems like a great school.

Sheridan: seems like a warm, approachable place, but was turned off by the curriculum used (similar to public) and a realization during the process that for sure we wanted a k-12. [/quote]
