The lunches may be OK ... but the school is certainly not known for its STEM offerings or music program. They do have a theater program, but athletics (lacrosse, basketball, etc are kings at Prep) |
| It looks like prep has stronger math and computers than add. Not sure about science. Anybody here leave prep to Major in science at college? |

Will do a drive by of gilman this week, thanks.
What about Loyola Blakefield? Is Gilman friendly? Any thoughts on Glenelg Country School? |
| can you move closer to the schools hyou like? |
| Episcopal high school looks good |
| The young men from Gilman I have met have been great kids, and their parents are friendly. I've been impressed by the variety of young men I've met. I expected a more stereotypical "man's man" and I've met musical boys, sporty boys, artsy boys, the whole range. Nice kids. |
| Prep is not known for STEM, but there is an active & growing robotics team and we know several boys who've gotten into good engineering programs. |
| St. Andrews in Delaware. All boarding. No day students. Small. Very strong academics. Great community. Great arts programs. Beautiful campus. Two hour drive from NW DC. |
My son is a Freshman at Loyola Blakefield. I've been really impressed. They have a great robitics team and an engineering club. There is a Howard County bus that stops on Rt. 40 and St. Johns lane. The commute is about 40 minutes each way, but a lot of the boys use the bus time to complete homework. |
