[quote=Anonymous]While we didn't remotely enjoy the interview process, called to find out my child was wait listed and later interviewed again (it is just as excruciating the second time) I have had nothing but positive impressions both times we've been to the school. I think that much of the static on this thread is about sour grapes moreso than anything.. Sure the one students writing in could have been more civil, but so could half of the fully grown adult parent posters who have assailed the principal and everything else that is 'supposedly wrong' with the school. C'mon people be honest. So what if we and our DC were stressed over having to do what was probably our first stringent interview and students had a say...Sooo what. The school prides itself on innovation and independent thought. And its students practically swept the STEM competition this year which means they are relatively serious and do care about inquiry... why shouldn't they help out. We finally did get and even if we hadn't I wouldn't be sitting around and complaining because everything wasn't oh so perfect when I know darn well how hard it is to interview well. And those of you who want Central office to 'do something' about SWWS may want to ask yourselves why you bothered to apply to such an unique and independent minded school in the first place? This thread has been a sad commentary not on SWWs but on the entitled attitudes of DC parents.[/quote]
