[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Key parent here again.  I only know the independent school choices for 12 of the current 5th graders.  Nine of those got their first choice -- preferences I knew about before acceptance letters were mailed, so the parents are not putting a happy face on an unwanted outcome.   Don't know about the rest, but I have no reason to believe my sample is skewed.  Also, many of the other students have chosen to go to public schools,  or are moving so did not apply to any independent schools.

Over the last couple of years, I can think of the following independent schools students attended after Key:  Edmund Burke, GDS, Holton Arms, Field, NCS, OLV, Potomac, Sidwell, St. Patrick's, Waldorf, and WES.  I do not claim this list is complete, but you get the idea that it is diverse.

Just trying to stick to the facts here, not trying to mislead anyone with "baloney."

So of 27 kids in the 5th grade, 9 got the school that they wanted, 3 their 2nd , 3rd or 4th, 5th choice, and the remaining 15 will be moving so that their kids can attend a better public school. You don't list an STA accpet above. Was there not a single one in the class of 27 or did none apply ? Also, of the 12 friends you know who applied to Sidwell, how many got in  from the 27 5th graders at Key in the recent year you speak of.  [/quote]
