[quote=Anonymous]NP-I am trying to get an idea of the social climate at Sidwell also. My DS shadowed at a different school in DC known for being socially and academically progressive-came home with tales of “White Privilege” and LGBQT posters on the walls. Also, in one of the classes the students were told they didn’t have to read a particular part of a book if they might find the Content offensive. We consider ourselves to pretty moderate and open minded politically but I was put off by the avoidance of subjects that might make people uncomfortable. Are we really encouraging our kids to do this? If so, I find that the wrong attitude to take. Is Sidwell similar because if so I’d probably think it wasn’t the best choice for my DS or family.
