Six going to the Big 3. That’s it. A lot of tuition down the drain.

Ah yes. Because the goal of K-8 is getting your kid into one of 3 local private schools. Lol.

8% to Big3 6/71
Your odds are higher from DCPS (Deal).

Actually, Bullis and St Andrew’s seem like logical schools to go to from Norwood. Norwood is pretty far from NW Washington and some of the families will be commuting to Norwood from even farther out. Those families will be looking for schools near where they live and not ones a 45 minute to 1 hour commute away.

We liked Norwood when we looked at it, but the commute out from the city made it impossible. I imagine the reverse is also true.

Right. Most families live further out.

Not everyone wants to send their child to Sidwell/NCS/STA. Why is that so hard for some of you to grasp?!?

Right. Even an imaginary child could get into Bullis.

Yes, we get it, Bullis parent. We are just saying if Jude going to spend $50k at a school, spend it where you will get more mileage for your money.
