Turns out not everyone makes a decision you would.

Someone who decided they didn’t want to move away from home in freaking 9th grade. That’s what college is for, right?

Why are some parents intent on rushing their children out of the house? Poor kids.

I chose to go to boarding school. However, I also totally understand why a kid might ultimately decide against it.

Your odds are higher from DCPS (Deal).

So… more than 39 kids from deal’s class of 2023 are going to the Big 3? Because that would be the ratio.

Where did you get 71 from? There were 58 graduates. The list includes schools kids got into but aren’t attending.

I don’t think this looks bad. How about other kids like WES and St Pats? Wonder how many kids got in Cathedral schools?

This is from St Patrick’s website for the past 5 years of students:

With about 22 students across the last five years attending boarding schools, other recent destinations have included Christ Church (VA), George (PA), Masters (NY), Salisbury (CT), Episcopal (VA), St. George’s (RI), St. Mark’s (MA), St. Paul’s (NH), and Woodberry Forest (VA).

With respect to day schools, the most frequent destinations across the past five years have been the paired single-sex Cathedral schools (17) of St. Albans (11) and NCS (6), Bullis (13), the paired single-sex schools of Holton and Landon (11), Maret (11), St. Andrew’s (11), Sidwell Friends (11), Madeira (9), and Stone Ridge (8). Other frequent destinations have included Georgetown Day (6), Potomac (6), Holy Child (5), Field (5), and Edmund Burke (4). Several students attended the Catholic high schools of Georgetown Visitation, Gonzaga, St. Anselm’s, and St. John’s during that five-year period, while two attended Georgetown Prep.

I really dislike when schools won’t give single-year matriculations.

Good comeback to deflect PP making random statement and no numbers to back up from Deal.

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.

It’s FARTHER out. Not further out.

Why are you on this thread if you don’t care about outplacement?
