[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you for the thoughtful responses. I do not at this moment have a favorite, but one thing that I liked about GDS is the small class size and teacher ratio. Doesn’t that mean more individual attention? Sidwell has up to 20 kids in a class in elementary with one teacher (this was said twice during admissions process). I don’t know how many kids are in the GDS classrooms, but the website says the teacher student ratio is 6:1. [/quote] Did something change? When my child was in lower school at Sidwell, there were 2 teachers per class. [/quote] Yes. It has changed. It might revert after covid, but it's been like this for awhile[/quote] So you're saying they're outright lying on their website?[/quote] If you need to resolve the issue of who is lying between what SFS says on their website and some anon rando on DCUM, I think the answer is clear who you should resolve in favor of.
