[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Totally agree it does not matter one bit which dead celebrities might have sent children to any school.  But it certainly seems Sidwell was "on the map" or "on the radar" or whatever, long before the 1990s.

Can we move on now?[/quote]

The increase in Sidwell's popularity is not just because of a few POTUS kids and the status seekers who follow them.

Sidwell started becoming more popular of a choice in the 70's as, nation wide, interest in single sex education started to wane. Besides that, Sidwell started to attract people  for what it is NOT, namely, it is not associated with a Cathedral . This started to become something in demand as demographics in the corridors of power in Washington started to change in the 60's moving forward to today.

Were STA and NCS to change their model from single sex to co-ed and change some of their chapel guidelines like Exeter has done, it would be game over because those two schools still have beyond a doubt the finest facilities in this town, high academic standards, and great matric stats.[/quote]
