100%. They have NO standards for admission. The public you pay for..............

That beats your school. Hence why you are here venting.

What are you 12? Typical Bullis cretin.

Sounds fair to me. What else motivates the incessant vitriol? Almost hobby-like for people to spew it. That or get a life!

Would you also suggest getting a life to the people who obsessively monitor this forum to no ugly truths are revealed about the school?

I, for one, could care less about whether Bullis wins on the field in any sport. But I did grow tired of paying for the HOS’ obsession with sports and flashy capital expenditures.

Some of you need to focus on schools that don’t have athletics. Because any good school that has them wants to be competitive.

Maybe there are some jealous parents who are mad a school has found a way to be great and allow kids to be kids. My kid is at a pressure cooker and if I could go back in time I would be looking more at how schools manage classes that kids get a great education and still have time for outside activists and friendships. I am definitely looking at this school for my other kids.

You don't write very well so this may go over your head but - NO ONE IS JEALOUS. If they were, they could go there.

Pretty sure no one considers Bullis "great."

Anybody who wants to go to Bullis and has money can go but given all the recent negative publicity I don't see why they would. Just send your kids to Whitman or Churchill instead and save 40K/year. You'll get a much better education from a far more reputable public school you don't pay for.

I don’t think so

So using your logic, how can a child who goes to Whitman or Churchill get a smaller class size? If you can tell me how to get a public high school classroom with 15 kids in it, I’m all in. My kid can’t focus in a large class, so how will public help him?

This kid is probably full pay. Bullis has a history of helping groom first round NFL quarterbacks. There are plenty of parents who may think the school is a wise investment for their kid who has potential.

Look, I’m a Bullis alum who couldn’t be happier, but as someone noted for Prep and their recent run of subpar jurists elevated beyond their stations, one does not a history make.

Still, it’s one more than Landon.

Sports and flash are the Bullis credo! Like attracts like...

Sure, but some schools seek to improve athletics by recruiting academically qualified students and others just throw a scholarship to whatever kid can throw the ball the farthest.

Just not any of the schools here.
