[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The modesty on this thread is astounding  :) .

Tells you a lot about the school and the people in it.

Not all of us run to post on social media when our kid gets into an Ivy. Christ [/quote]

Umm others years when Sidwell had good college admits those "modest" kids were happy to crow about it on social media asap. Sooo. maybe this year Sidwell has nothing to report? Live by the sword die by the sword, people. Interesting that the parents who love to denigrate GDS on this forum simply cannot just say- "Wow good job." Seven (that we know of) Harvard admits in one class. Why is it so hard to just say the kids did great?[/quote]

Relax, GDS Mom. Sidwell has 10 Ivy admits posted on Instagram so far, compared to GDS’ 14. Y[b]ou and I both know that no matter what the numbers end up being this year, Sidwell was/is/will always be superior to GDS.[/b] But please enjoy those extra 4 admits for now…
Everyone deserves their time in the sun (especially after the results GDS’ c/o ‘23 endured). [/quote]
NP and not affiliated with GDS or Sidwell, but in what way is Sidwell superior to GDS?
Academically speaking, I don't think so, in fact the inverse might be true. If you take math competitions for example, GDS has done lot better than Sidwell.[/quote]

A lot better than Sidwell in math competitions? Really?

The most recent MathCounts results show that 6/11 of the top finishers are Sidwell students. Is that your definition of much better?

On March 9, DC MATHCOUNTS held its State competition at Saint Anselm's Abbey School. Forty-four students from DC middle schools competed for the right to represent the District at MATHCOUNTS’ National Competition in May. The top 25% Mathletes were:

Rank Name School
1 Georgetown Day School
2 Sidwell Friends School
3 Georgetown Day School
4 Sidwell Friends School
5 Maret School
6 Sidwell Friends School
7 Milton Gottesman Jewish Day School 
8 Sidwell Friends School
9 Maret School
10 Sidwell Friends School
11 Sidwell Friends School

Congratulations to the top four Mathletes who will form DC’s State team![/quote]
GDS almost always win the DC chapter in this competition and other math competitions like the Universal of Maryland.

Yay! You found a math competition that GDS actually wins—whew! [b]They only seem to win the DC competition[/b] because a Maryland public school appears to win the entire competition every year. I bet you were up googling all night. 
Congratulations to GDS, though![/quote]
That's what I said.  They almost always won DC.
Even the Mathcounts that you posted, GDS finished 1st. [/quote]

Congratulations to GDS! I’m happy to hear they come in first place for something other than weirdness. [/quote]

Jealous and bitter[/quote]
