[quote=Anonymous]Covid honestly has changed everything. I'm not in admissions but I work in an independent K-8 that typically struggles to fill every seat, but those days are (at least temporarily) over. We had far more applicants than we could admit, and it was actually hard to say no to families, but there are fire codes and rules we have to adhere to. We are not the kind of school that is trying to be Sidwell, but it's a wonderful school, and I suspect that this year we are taking a number of kids who in a "normal" year - when parents had more confidence in the local public schools - would get into and enroll at Sidwell. I think Sidwell is terrific too; it's great that there are a range of schools in the District. Anyway, if you're set on an independent school, definitely include a safety, because everything has been turned on its head.[/quote]
