Because the independent school we picked was better in every respect. On some points the differential was a chasm whereas the gap was much smaller in other areas.  We reassessed at MS and again at high school (for SWW, not Wilson).

Also because we value education above a gigantic addition with an open floor plan and an Audi Q7[/quote]

I'll make sure to tell all my friends whose kids went to Ivies and other top 20 colleges from Wilson that they don't value education. :roll: [/quote]

Do you think their high school education at Wilson was as high quality as the education our kids received at Sidwell? Probably not.

Also, just a few kids a year matriculate from Wilson to T20 schools.   Every year there are a handful, <10, and removing the crew athletic recruits leaves about 5 a year.  Meh.  [/quote]

You keep telling yourself that. And anyway, the implication that families who don't spend $50k/year on their kids' education don't "value" education is offensive to me. And could not be less true in at our WOTP elementary, which yes, has numerous Ivy legacies in the parent body. [/quote]

They will leave for private. [/quote]
