[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]we are a former Langley family with many friends still at the school and I agree with PP. Their outplacement this year was not the best. Zero accepted at Sidwell , 1 accepted at GDS. I am not sure about other “Big 5s” but seems like the same few kids who got into several of the top schools [/quote] to be fair the 8th grade class is one of the smallest at Langley so hard to compare when saying it is a small few. the list above with school school names by a prior poster is correct there was more than one to GDS, maret, cathedral schools etc. several applied to field and got in. yes there are a few on waiting lists as well[/quote] I’m a parent familiar with this grade and it’s always been an outlier class. Small, a lot of kids with behavioral issues. Not sure what was in the water that year. The current 7th grade is a really nice group I expect that Langley will do well with outplacement next year. [/quote] yes it’s a disjointed class but honestly they didn’t do badly for placement at all. the dysfunction of the class has nothing to do with it larger grade coming up with have it harder w more competing for fewer spots. fyi GDS admitted fewer overall bc of their enrollment cap [/quote]
