[quote=Anonymous]We actually turned down SSSAS to attend another school... but I feel I should chime in here and respond to these highly negative posts about the school. We did not get this impression going through the admissions process. We found the parents, teachers, and administrators we interacted with to be very gracious and kind - seemed like the kind of people we'd enjoy being around. It may not be a good fit for "Sidwell" type parents, but there is nothing wrong with having a number of parents who fit the affluent, Southern, good public university educated (UVA), golf and tennis playing, fraternity/sorority types, mold - some of the most successful people in America fit that mold (granted they are usually CEOs of companies rather than PHD professors at an Ivy League School). I'm wondering if there aren't a few people posting on this board who are in some way disgruntled with the school... or perhaps their child attends one of the less prestigious K-8 schools in the are and thus they're trying to bring SSSAS down a notch. I'm sure some of the comments above are legit, but I'm also sure there are plenty of positive attributes to the school as well.[/quote]
