[quote=Anonymous]I'd pick Sheridan K all the way. Maret is a great school, that offers many wonderful things, but the K-8 model that Sheridan offers has been the best placement for our family. The 8th graders take such deep pride and care of their kindergarten buddies, it is really a special place. In the K-8 model, the 7th and 8th graders really learn about leadership and responsibility as the 'big kids' in the school before they head off to high school. It is hard to know right now what our DC will be like as a student in high school, and I am excited for her to be part of the process of learning about what school will best suit her needs as a 14 year old - a decision I can not make while she is so young. I understand that is one of the many qualities Sheridan students graduate with - learning about themselves as learners. The school is small and intimate, all the adults know each child's name. It is hard to replicate that type of connection in a k-12 environment. You have 2 great choices - but 2 very different choices, so part of your decision should be thinking about what type of school setting you want for your child. I'd go with Sheridan :)[/quote]
