[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyine who can't return a simple phone call within a few days, especially when you're dealing with what is essentially a client, is ridiculously ineffective.[/quote]

I understand the frustration, but you are looking at this from your perspective.  Sidwell, if that is indeed the school you are talking about, gets hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of applications....and on top of that, many, many more "inquiries" and requests for information (on top of the many that actually do apply.)  So, to assume that your personal call should sky-rocked to the top of the pile is a little narcissistic.  That is why all schools have an online system.  I'm curious what question you have that demands a personal call back that couldn't be handled online?  Sorry.[/quote]

Another poster brought in Sidwell.  OP pretty clearly stated that it was a smaller school that rarely gets discussed on DCUM.  That pretty much rules out Sidwell.[/quote]

I'm the person who posted the initial ridiculously ineffective comment. And ironically, I went to Sidwell. Love the poster who said "public-school for you and yours!" Comments like that are ABSOLUTELY why we are going public voluntarily. God, private school parents are disgusting. As are the admission staff, apparently. Sounds like an awesome atmosphere for everyone![/quote]

you're right, of course. we have found most of the private school parents to be pretty vile.[/quote]

Which is why I troll private school message boards at night....[/quote]
