[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just for the record, the Clintons were considering both schools for Chelsea. The deciding factor was that Sidwell's campus was conducive to a more secure drop-off and pick-up (i.e. the daily transition). This was communicated to the Obamas as well. [/quote]

Oh my.

Just for the record, the Lincolns were considering GDS for their kids.[/quote]

Your joke is so funny, why aren't you in standup comedy?

Obviously, GDS doesn't date from the Civil War era, but from the post-World War II era, having been founded in 1945.  But given GDS's unique history as the first integrated leading private school in the nation's capital, its pursuit of social justice, and the fact that it has educated the children of the first African-American Supreme Court justice and Attorney General, among others, it might be a good bet that Lincoln would have chosen GDS for his sons had it been around in the day.[/quote]

Hysterical!   :lol:  :lol: [/quote]

Just for the record, King George had his kids apply to GDS, but the school rightfully denied them admission, sparking the War of Independence.[/quote]

Georgetown Day is named for King George, no?   How social justice-oriented of them.[/quote]

Good point.

Time for a new, non-offensive name.[/quote]
