[quote=Anonymous]GDS was the better fit for our kid and family. It felt more like a nice, warm school versus Sidwell with its large campus and prep school feeling. GDS has all kids take phys ed and no athletics requirement which worked better for our kid. Now that our kid is at GDS, I see the fun part of it. Little things throughout the month like the pickleball competition, but also cookie decorating. Makes me laugh that Sidwell goes with golf cart driving lessons.The kids at GDS send out emails to drum up support to attend games that are downright funny. We know great families at Sidwell and get a feeling that it is more competitive among the kids and families. My kid packs a sandwich everyday and loves freedom to come and go. Most of the kids we knew going through this process got into one or the other but there were some who made choices. I think at that point the families know what’s best.[/quote]
