[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sidwell also have excellent academics but is weak in sports.  NCS and St Albans probably have the best combination of excellent academics plus strong sports teams.[/quote]

Please stop with the sports fallacy.[/quote]

I'm not the PP, but what she/he said is accurate.  GDS is mediocre athletics.  How can you refute that?  And in terms of a balance between academics and athletics, few can rivals NCS and STA.[/quote]

GDS has some top sports teams. I can't remember what they are because my family, like a lot of GDS families, doesn't care about sports. If you want to go to a school where football players and other jocks are at the top of the social pyramid, don't pick GDS. If you just like sports, inquire when you visit.[/quote]

GDS has good boys soccer, boys' cross country, and ok girls' basketball.  They don't field teams in other sports (football, field hockey), and are terrible in most everything else.  That's ok, it's not a place that emphasizes sports (although they do let in senior transfers for girls' basketball, which is quite unusual); however, it is non-factual to claim it is a good sports program in general.[/quote]
