[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Weird but true:

There are tons of rich people in this area with really smart kids who can afford to pay $40k for several kids at the school. [/quote]

Or there are tons of rich people who can afford to pay $40k and more spots are available because so many of the really smart kids go to public.[/quote]

What does this even mean in the context of Sidwell?  Rich people don't have smart kids in some cases?  Sidwell doesn't have smart kids?  Some other agenda going on?[/quote]

There are a handful of people who can afford full freight tuition.  If that handful, a percentage of them are smart.  A percentage of them are smart.  The school HAS to fill a certain number of spots with full tuition payers for their financials to work.  I guess the percentage of rich people who are also smart varies from year to year.  In a place like D.C., it may be as high as 100% some years, but I would wager it doesn't. In order for the school to exist, they need to accept students who can pay full price.
