[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Students who are particularly focused on finding a large cohort of kids who are very high-achieving academically... are attracted to GDS.[/quote] This is exactly why we chose GDS over Maret and other schools, including Sidwell. It’s a basic defining characteristic IMHO.[/quote] Let me preface this by saying I'm a fan of gds upper school, but, you can't honestly say that sidwell upper school students aren't very focused on finding a cohort of high-flying academic peers. Particularly the teens applying for 9th grade, as OP is. (Someone will now predictably point out that gds offers phd-level math to the 2 students a year who can handle such content while no other school does. We get it, and we gently remind you that doesn't describe the vast majority of incoming 9th graders who are looking at the whole curriculum)[/quote]
