[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tuition keeps going up because 1) demand for good faculty increases making the market for good teachers tighter...pay up or lose them and 2) parents rightly demand more - new buildings, more programs, etc, which you know, requires money.[/quote]

Several peer schools have kept tuition increases to 3%, kept teachers and have excellent college placement so I don’t buy it.[/quote]

Which “peer” schools?
1. Where are these schools located?  Hint: DC is the only acceptable answer because…COL and land values
2. What are these schools’ 2023-24 tuition rates? Is lunch included in the tuition?
3. How do their facilities compare to Sidwell’s (be honest)?[/quote]

See Potomac and Maret. [/quote]

Lol—You know these two schools are not Sidwell’s peers.  Potomac is located somewhere in Virginia, and Maret’s facilities leave a lot to be desired (including adequate onsite sports fields).  Plus, a generation ago, Maret was the school where you landed if you were counseled out of Sidwell/STA/NCS.  Those three schools have always educated the political and financial elite.  That’s why they’re the real Big 3.[/quote]

Keep drinking that Kool Aid!! Clueless[/quote]

People who think that Maret and Potomac are Sidwell’s peer institutions are clueless.  Keep dreaming![/quote]

So much insecurity in your posts.
