[quote=Anonymous]+1: Another senior parent. Sidwell's advanced tracks plus grade deflation (relative to peers) may have worked two decades back when there was (perhaps) better appreciation about what these things meant in Univ Admissions offices. It may have helped the very top students signal their quality without hurting the very strong students in the next tier. Now, it is tantamount to kneecapping your troops before sending them to battle. Administration and teachers far too flaky/self satisfied/un-incentivized to change. In 14 years at Sidwell, I can honestly say that I have never felt like my feedback mattered once. [/quote]
