[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think GDS is learning that talk is cheap.  You can talk all you want about diversity and inclusion -- both the worthiest of goals -- but making it happen requires more than talk.  It is hard work.  I think other schools in the area that may not seem as progressive do a better job with diversity and inclusion than GDS does.

A parent I know with children at GDS and Sidwell once said.  GDS talks all the time about how they are better than Sidwell, but Sidwell never talks about GDS.  I feel that someone in leadership at GDS has a chip on their shoulder about not being Sidwell.  It's too bad.  I think the ill-advised expansion/development project is driven by that competition as is the desire pretend everything is fine.  Every school has issues; the best schools are honest about them and confront them.[/quote]

Nope. I'm an alum parent who also served on all sorts of committees. I don't think once in my dozens of years did anyone ever mention anything about Sidwell. No one at GDS talks about this except in good fun from the sports teams. This is yet another troll trying to create problems where there are none. [/quote]
