[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They feel it would be an invasion of privacy as the school is relatively small.  Having been through the process, It hasn't been very useful for top students.   In fact, misleading. given the strong connections area private school families have to colleges.  And for excellent but slightly less selective schools, standard GPA and test score publications tell you as much.[/quote]

Agree that Naviance isn't all that, but Sidwell's policy toward providing access to parents and students only adds to the hype, as well as the sense that counselors are playing hide the ball with many families.  All too often, Sidwell acts in a way that heightens the belief that some people have inside info while the rest of us are forever on the periphery.  Our kids have gotten a good education at SFS and they got lucky in the college admissions crapshoot, but I'm so glad we'll be out of there soon.  And, no, I'm not going to be one of those "graduated parents" who continues to give money to the school.      [/quote]
