[quote=Anonymous]What is so awful about entering Maret, or Sidwell or any other private school, in the ninth grade? Lots of kids enter at that point from public, and for all sorts of reasons. Some need a little extra academic help, or support with the social adjustments, since there can be a world of difference between public and private. But for the most part they tend to make it over the hump, if there is one, and do just fine. They're not interlopers, and -- having been admitted by the admissions committee after all -- have just as much right to be there as the kids who are lifers.[/quote]
