[quote=Anonymous]Interesting thread. Having kids @ GDS for nearly 12 years, I haven't really heard a lot about how the consolidation and relocation positions the school vis-a-vis Sidwell and the other schools on Wisconsin. What I hear includes (a) desire to have all students on one campus to ease commute for families, (b) preference for all faculty and staff to be near a Metro stop, and a (c) goal for an income producing properties to bolster FA and teacher salaries. GDS is about half as old as the Cathedral Schools, Maret, and Sidwell. My guess is the endowment is substantially less than any of those schools. And I can't imagine, given the history of the school's founding, that they would swap a city location for more space in a suburban setting. GDS isn't for every family, just like some folks prefer single sex to coed. I've never quite gotten the antipathy. [/quote]
