I recently enrolled my son to go to Sidwell and every day he comes home, He tells me how great he thinks it is. In 2006, my family and I moved from Florida and left behind many friends and family. My wife and I had nightmares about our son being depressed, lonely, and unliked. But that is no problem. Not only are the kids great, but so are the teachers and especially the principal who greets all the children outside every morning. Sidwell is a nice school that excercises the religion of Quakerism, a peacful, kind, non intimidating Religion. I highly reccomend any parents who are worried about their son or daughter being lonely.
